Angry Stock tire feathering @ 6000?

I did a search and didn't come up with anything, so is this an isolated issue for me? I have the 17s with just over 6k mi, and to me, this is a problem. Just got it back from the dealer (Three Rivers Chrysler Jeep Dodge, Pittsburgh) and they said that it was in alignment, and that this is "normal" for the new Wranglers, and that I will just have to keep up with my tire rotations and tire pressures to ensure no premature wear.

Funny thing is, I've got a 2003 350Z as well, and the earlier models had issues with the factory alignment specs causing wear on the fronts w/ a LOT of road noise. TSB, new alignment (w/new specs), and new tires were Nissan's answer to the problem. No more issues.

My JK is an earlier build (got it in Oct 2006). Anyone else have this going on?
