We're talking about a slip like a skipping feel kinda? |

Strange thing is I don't recall my 350z doing this and that had wider front tires. To make sure we're talking about the same thing I am not talking about the possible power steering whine sound when the steering wheel is turned to its max. |

And my 350Z didn't do this either, and it had almost identical front camber and toe settings to my 370Z. |
Tire compound and tread pattern have a big effect on tire slip/noise at extreme angles. This may (or may not) be why y'all didn't notice it on other cars. It happens to all cars; just not very noticeable on many.

As I pointed out in an earlier post, the only major difference between the two cars is their caster specifications (about +7.0 for the 350Z, but about +5.0 for the 370Z). More positive caster, among other things, equals more heft in the steering and a feeling of more stability; less positive caster equals less heft and a feeling of quicker turn-in. Driving both cars back-to-back will reveal this immediately. |

And that's weird it wasn't supposed to quote hotrodz but whatever. |

Lol I was reading this thinking "I'm pretty sure that was meant to be quoting my last comment". I'm thinking I'm just going to buy a new pair of front tires and get a proper alignment done together. On my way home from work today I was on this horrible rode filled with pot holes and cracked pavement and I could not keep the car straight for the life of me, even with both hands on the steering wheel. It really is dangerous. |
NoHyperbole, I paid closer attention today as I was driving and noticed my car actually pulls to the left pretty severely if I let go of the wheel. You stated that your car will drift left/right but generally stay centered.
My assumption is your problem is from bad tires, and mine is from a bad alignment and bad tires. |
Very interesting. Thanks for the input.
I hope you get this issue sorted out soon, as I'm sure driving an unsafe car is no fun. Keep us posted. |
