It gets cold in Kentucky, you might want to get some all seasons tires for the winter time then switch back to your summer tires when it warms up.

Yeah, like everybody said. It's the tires skipping some when turning. I only get this backing out from my garage at low speed. The bigger the tire, the worst it is. You should feel it with 275's on front.

No suspension mods. There should not be anything to make the tires skip (pop and jerk) on the pavement. Just because they are wide or considered summer tires they still should track parallel when turning. It could be the differential transferring to the front. A limited slip differential does this when cold.

It feels like a ball joint pop when it happens. I've only got 16,000 miles on my Nismo. It has done it from day one. Everything is tight on the front of the car too. Being an ASE Master Tech at one time and a track junkie. I know what my car is doing and feeling.
