Default Tight turns

Do all Z's front end skip or jump when turning at slow speeds full left or right?

My wife's Corvette GS does it also with Michelin Pilot Sports. It's just a summer tire thing in the winter.

Normal for a 370Z. Wider tires, colder weather, and lighter vehicles all contribute to tire scrub. Composition of pavement will also have an effect.
