If the center of the tread is worn much more than the outsides Guenter in Ontario - Wednesday, 21 September, 2011, at 8:53:31 pm |

Then the problem might be underinflated rear tires Boxsterra - Wednesday, 21 September, 2011, at 11:18:13 pm |

The design of modern wide tires, (30,40, 50, etc. series) requires proper (more) air pressure to push out the side walls to flatten the center of the tread. Low pressure will cause wear in the center. This is the opposite of older, narrow tires, (78, 80 series) where higher pressures will cause the tread to wear in the center. My Boxster with a lots of negative camber has more wear on the inside edges of the tires.

Still could be the bearings; out of round or scalloped tire(s) Laz - Wednesday, 21 September, 2011, at 8:57:38 pm |

I just had the tires rebalanced a week ago. Hunter Road Force. I'm still hearing the oscillating noise. I'm thinking I'm just going to inflate to 29 front and 36 rear and start pricing new rear tires (fronts appear pretty new, lots of tread left). I can't tell if the noise is coming from the front or the rear, so I'll just start with the rears and see what happens.
Thanks all for the help! I appreciate the flow of ideas.
New rear tires = problem solved! bar10dah - Saturday, 1 October, 2011, at 9:05:11 pm |
