I think it's normal.

If you're very worried then get it checked over at the dealership for peace of mind.

This sound is pretty common with the setup we have, especially noticeable when its cold and/or wet.

Normal, more noticeable with summer tires in cold weather, it went away almost completely when I put all-seasons on for winter.

It's a known thing. Happens with performance summer tires at colder temps. Especially pronounced when tires are over inflated by MB

There is a service bulletin out of that (saw that in another thread) and they recommend changing to snows or all seasons
