When turning tires makin noise!?

IMO, all Z's (except maybe the NISMO) should come standard with high performance all-season tires. The performance difference up to 7/10 street driving is negligible, yet the all-seasons perform much better during the cold months and last longer, too.

My old S2000 on the OE summer tires was near dangerous when driving in cold weather, a switch to hp-all-seasons made it a great all-season daily driver (except for heavy snow, of course). Most affordable sports cars are compromise vehicles anyway, why deliver the car with summer only tires that limit its cold weather performance and wear out more quickly? For bragging rights? It's a waste.
