#15 of 21 Re: G35S Sedan in SNOW?? [misha1641] by paulo6 Jun 05, 2008 (5:02 pm)
Replying to: misha1641 (Jun 02, 2008 3:28 pm) Got a 2006 6MT sedan myself and I live in MI. We got a record snow this year in Ann Arbor, and considering that I got stuck twice. I purchased 4 USED (My car is leased) snow tires from Ebay, and I tell they make a whole lot of difference. Actually, without them I would never consider a RWD in MI.

Replying to: paulo6 (Jun 05, 2008 5:02 pm) so you had no problems getting around up the hill with snow tires on? Replies to this message: paulo6 (Jun 07, 2008 4:24 am) misha1641 (Jun 07, 2008 12:59 pm) paulo6 (Jun 07, 2008 6:10 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: misha1641 (Jun 06, 2008 5:30 pm) It was no AWD for sure, but it was perfectly manageable...you have to look at in perspective....as I said maybe 2 or 3 days of the year where it will turn me in a bad mood, when I get stuck somewhere...again, that was the worst winter (most snow) on record in Ann Arbor, MI. My lease ends in October, if I stick with a 2009 G, I might do a RWD again...or the new g35Xs (hopefully G37 by then).

Replying to: paulo6 (Jun 07, 2008 4:24 am) so if you had to do it again you would get an X is that what you are saying? Replies to this message: paulo6 (Jun 07, 2008 6:10 pm) sweendogy (Jun 14, 2008 1:23 pm)

Replying to: misha1641 (Jun 07, 2008 12:59 pm) No, as i said for 2 or 3 days a year of getting stuck and getting pissed, it is worth the Manual RWD and the extra ponies I got in the 2006. Rest of the year was a blast. For 2009, I might get the G35XS, for a change and the paddle shifters...but would not have an issue getting another 6MT RWD with good snow tires. Again, keep in mind the above scenario took place in a year of RECORD snow fall here in Ann Arbor, MI. Replies to this message: sweendogy (Jun 14, 2008 1:23 pm)

#21 of 21 VDC and tire wear on G35X by rustynail2009 Mar 09, 2009 (12:24 pm)
Can an over active VDC system cause premature tire wear? I have dedicated summer and winter tires with a total of 21,000 kilometers on them and they have very uneven wear and almost done. Driverside rear tire on both summer and winter sets are the most worn. And to add to the problem I noticed this winter (2nd on my winter tire set) at highway speeds and at light throttle, the car cannot run straight and stable, the steering has to be constantly corrected (VDC always left turned on) the SLIP indicator has not been blinking more than normal. I had a four wheel alignment done, the brakes are OK. Anyone suffering a similar problem, any ideas?
