First impression was that they were soft, then I noticed that in acceleration the car pulls left, deceleration goes right. Tried increasing pressure from 35 to 40 then 45 and no change....had alignment checked prior to tire change and was perfect...maybe needs changed with new tires?

I am perplexed as to what the issue is,,,,are the tires just not the right ones to have on a Z, or should I go to 50 pounds??

I hope someone has some ideas as I will need to return the tires and replace with something else in the next day or two.

thanks for your help.
so you haven't checked the alignment since the tire change? if so, do that, sounds like an alignment problem.

and keep the tire pressure at 35.
