6,500 Miles on M550's
And they are starting to get really loud. The TL is stock. I have summer tires on my other cars and the avons are louder than them. They have always been around 32 PSI all around, should I have them at that? Any suggestions about the noise? I might contact Avon about these.

The pressure's fine. My Falken ZIEX ZE512s became very noisy around 10k miles. It turned out that it was because they were cupping and therefore wearing unevenly. It was related to poor alignment. You should have the tires and our alignment checked.

ok so my mom just had an alignment done, that is when they started making the noise. So should I go back to the shop and have them look at it?

Ok so I took it by and they said the tires are worn bad from the bad alignment and they are ok now, but they will just need some time to get reworn in and then they will be quite. Does this sound right?
