Tire noise

Couple of questions.




Are C63s known for feathering/cupping tires? My PSS are brand new and recently developed a slight resonance that reminds me of my 350Z when it had a factory toe that was too agressive. I had an alignment done back in August/September time and my winters were howling like crazy by the end of the season but the car had been aligned to factory spec.


Any recommendations on better specs? Or is this the nature of having the car handle as it does now? On my 2011 S4 I remember the PSS being incredibly quiet so I want to nip this in the butt before it gets past the point of no return and they howl like my winters did.


Thanks in advance.

You could try taking some toe out. Factory toe is a little aggressive for a street car. Had mine 0'd out and have not noticed any negative effects in handling
