G35c - flip front 18" tires - benefit?

Hi, have Avon 18" on '04 G35C-approx. 20K miles. Fronts are very noisy - in particular - at slower speed. Does it "pay" to flip the fronts - side to side? If so, will it reduce the noise and for how many miles? Thank You.

Sounds like feathering to me. I did flip mine, and it did reduce the noise. How many miles will depend on how fast they wear/feather. After I flipped mine, I had the alingment done and I haven't had feathering issues since.
If you're tires are in decent shape, i say flip them. If not then get new tires and alingment.
