Default questions before my z arrives

i have an silverstone enthusiast being delivered at the end of this week. I'm not mechanically inclined with car and would appreciate if someone would please explain the details of the tire feathering. Is there a solution to the problem? Is NNA helping people at all? Is tire feathering inevitable and should I move on to looking for a used Porsche? Thank you


Mike

No feathering on my Brick after 5 months & 2500 miles.

Default Tire Feathering

There are several threads about tire feathering and pics. I would suggest checking those.

I would strongly recommend having your dealer give the car an alignment as part of the delivery process before you take delivery. Be sure to have them give you the before and after alignment settings.

That's about the most you can do right now.

Supposedly Nissan is working on a more permanent fix. If and when it will be out is unknown. In the meantime, they are standing behind their product pretty well. My dealer just ordered me a new set of tires, I didn't even ask for them.
