Default Square Setup?

Will running the same size tire all around the car have a negative effect on daily driving or on the car itself?

Depends on the trim level. VDC/TCS need certain differences to work correctly.

^ yep depends on trim..although non-base models of certain years arent affected by a square setup, according to those who have ran it.

You don't own a 350Z so don't worry about it.

ths thread went from ' guy who wants a square set up for autocross'

...and has quickly turned into

" i want to put wheels on my car that are starting to sound like they are not made for my car"

our fault for assuming the prior and not the later.

It's a matter if having started a new job, which ate up my savings in the process, and not having enough dough to blow on a brand new winter tire setup now that the snow has flown. So, might look dumb but I'd rather that then end up sliding er into something while on bald summer tires. That would look dumb

This is probably the worst and most worthless thread I've ever read here.
