You'll be fine mixing tire types as long as they are the same general category (max performance with max performance). I wouldn't put all weather tires on one axle and summers on the other though.

Glad to hear things are OK. Dipsticks can have quite of bit of error depending on when you check them (cool oil, warm oil, time after engine shutdown, etc).

Cars may burn more oil during the first 5k miles or so. You can top it off with any 5W30 oil. Better to top it off than drive around with too little oil.

I've now read the entire article and find the Z review to at least be accurate. However, C&D isn't consistent with how they judge the good and bad qualities of the cars in the test. The Z gets...

100% agree. Nissan could relatively cheaply install an oil cooler package and a true 'track' brake package and transfer all the cost to the consumer who purchases them. It takes very little R&D to...

Amazed you won't just live with them. You'll never notice a difference. You're gonna get hosed after all is said and done (discounted sale, unmount, new tires, remount). Sigh.
