Don't get used tires. Go to tirerack.com and look up 18" tires---they have some good specials. What year/model is your car? Is it VDC equipped?

Doesn't really matter , all Z's are ABS equiped, and stopping is just as important.

For everyday driving, yes. It's not ideal, but it will work just fine for DD'ing.
