Suspension/Tire noise on low speed(-5mph) turns........
It has been very cold here in Atlanta the past week and we had a few inches of snow on the ground. My TT is normally kept in the garage but has been out for the past week and sat out during the snow as well. Ever since this I have been hearing noises and a strange feeling ever so slightly when I am turning the wheel ~75% in either direction while doing ~5mph. It is almost a grinding sound but I cant tell what it is. It reminds me of driving a 4-wheel drive truck/SUV with the front/rear differentials locked on pavement, a feeling that the two front wheels are attempting to turn in unison and in doing so it feels like one is having excess pressure put on it and chafing against the ground....
Make sense? Any ideas?

If anyone's still listening: Dealer said it was the tires.
My Potenza RE40's have 20K miles and 3 track events on them, and they are REALLY bald. Still, I don't see how they could cause the noise I'm hearing, but hopefully the noise will go away when I get new rubber later this week.
