to and from destinations. I also replaced factory tires for Dunlop WinterSport 3D in rear and Dunlop graspic DS3 in front...

I don't see why you should have problem. It's like carrying an extra person (120 lbs). You may lose a MPG or two but you'll have much better rear traction since 370Z rear is so light. Good luck
