Hey guys i have a question that is bothering me very much. I own a 350z and yesterday it was about 46 degrees pretty sunny and i was on the highway. I went around 3 tight corners on the highway, one was 90 mph, another was 70 mph and last was 40 mph and each time my back would start SLIPPING and i just got brand new tires last week. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY IT COULD BE SLIPPING???

 

New tires have release compounds on the surface to help the tires come off of the molds. It takes a little while for this to come off the tires. If you don't want to wait for it to wear off, use household detergent and wash the tires.

 

good thing you dont own a motorcycle

 

that would have been fun..

 

+1 on the new tires + the cold street temps. ALso how tight are these corners? 90 is actually pretty fuk1n fast to be going around tight corners.

 

the 90 mph was a 5 lane highway, pretty wide. But do you guys think it could be my SLIP DIFFERENTIAL by any chance? I guess it could be from the mold on the tires. It just feels like my steering is a little looser

 

what tires did you take off and which tires did you put on

 

90mph turn on the highway

It has been cold out, what type of tires do you have?

 

you are DK thats why!

 

If I were a betting man, I would say he switched from summer tires to an A/S tire and has no clue about the differences....lets wait and see

 

 

+1

Do a couple burnouts and you'll be all set.

 

But if you do the burnouts too soon after the tire is mounted, it can slip on rim because of the mounting lube if it has not dried completely yet and throw off the balance!

 

**** someone was right. I had Summer Yokohama Tires and switch to Yokohama avid w4s which is All Season. But what is the big difference? it said it would be good ALL SEASON

 

what do i do when im in a race and have to take traction control off? and we are going around corners

 

I went with the Toyo T1R's. Very sticky tire but the tread life sucks

 

Same thing happens to me too. I recently mounted new wheels/tires and even the slightest turns causes my slip light to come on. Some turns that I use to could take easily w/ my stocks on now cause my slip light to go off w/ my new setup.

 

All season tires are obviously 4x better than summer tires because all season=4/4 and summer=1/4. It's science.

 

Same thing happens to most Z's with new tires. After a few days of normal driving, do a few burnouts.

 

well i purchased the tires at TIREWAREHOUSE. Does anyone know if its possible to go back there and exchange them for summer tires within 30 days. Or do u think they wont allow the exchange?
