Nissan 370Z Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza RE 71RS given 94% (275-35-18-)
Driving on track for 400 spirited miles
I race a 370z in time attack up in Ontario, Canada and these tires get overlooked by a lot of drivers that solely run CR-S and I can’t understand why. Over my last two years, 13 races, with about a handful of lapping days I’ve went through two sets and have already bought my third set. The tires in the dry, handle phenomenally!! The cars becomes very predictable pre corner and in corner and you can really put the power down on exit! I have never had issues with heat soaking. They do like higher hot psi, I run fronts around 35psi and rears around 34psi (depending on air and track temps as well). They build up speed and hold consistent lap times once at full hot operating temps, usually my first lap is slowest and 3rd lap is fastest. Tremendous amounts of grip as well throughout a race day.
Wet driving on road and track are amazing as well! On the wet road they’re just any other ordinary tire with lots of grip (provided they have tread still), on a wet track (which I haven’t had may wet track days) they held up better than I could have imagined, held grip throughout the wet until the track started drying off and never once encountered any under or oversteering. I was about 3-5 seconds slower in the wet vs dry time. On wet tracks I’d run 37psi front and 36psi rear.
Overall amazing longer lasting tire for a great price.

Writing about the Falken Azenis RS820 given 81% (275-35-19-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 300 spirited miles
After a long process of deliberating which tyres to fit on my 370z, I decided to give the new RS820s a try.

And up to now I have to say I’m really very happy with them. They replaced a set of Michelin Pilot 4Ss, which again, as we all know they’re a great tyre.

The Falken RS820 is a little quieter at motorway speed, useful in a car that’s known for being quite noisy.

They are more temperature sensitive than the Michelins were and will definitely wear quicker but the Falkens definitely feel better under braking where in the dry, from 70mph the 370z could use almost 100% of it’s total braking capability before any ABS intervention.

In the wet, that was still around 3/4 which is impressive nonetheless.

When the limits of grip are breached, the breakaway is predictable and “friendly” with the added bonus of giving the car a slightly more pointy front end compared to the Michelins.

I do think the Michelins are a better all round tyre for day to day use, but the Falkens come out on top in terms of sheer performance and added driver engagement.

Will definitely fit again.

Writing about the Yokohama Advan Sport AS Plus given 85% (265-40-18-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 2000 average miles
I just bought these tires for my "winter" wheels (Square 265/40R18). I wanted a set of tires that can be considered very safe in cold/wet conditions. The first thing I noticed was the ride comfort and overall lack of road noise. Considering this tire will never see the track, this was an excellent revelation. The tires are very sure footed in wet conditions, and they can safely disperse puddles that accumulate on the road.

These are just my initial thoughts, but so far, so good.

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S given 81% (305-30-19-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 spirited miles
I used the Michelin PS4S as a general street use tire on my 370Z for a little more than 2 years. I will add the disclaimer that my alignment used was more track biased with extra negative camber dialed in, but these have never seen the track. Overall, these are a great tire to use on the road. Peak grip is excellent and the ride quality is also noticeably improved over competitors. When the tread was adequate (above the wear bars), the wet traction was pretty good as well. However, I did not enjoy the steering feedback from the vehicle. Compared to the same sizes of my previous Continental Extreme Contact Sport, turn-in felt vague and not as responsive. The overall treadwear of the tires is excellent. My front tires are still good but being a rear-wheel drive car, it's expected for those to wear out faster.

I am moving onto the Bridgestone Potenza Sport tires (mainly due to a closeout pricing) because the Michelins are just far too expensive for what they offer on the road. For the track, I recommend just getting a good set of 200TW tires.

Writing about the Sumitomo HTR Z5 given 69% (275-35-19-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
Excellent dry grip. I maybe abusive to this tire but that said with 8k kms on this set the front tires are half worn while the rears needed replacement. Allow 800kms for proper break in. It will feel down right sketchy. After break-in these grip and become a real fun tire. I am seeing how far the rear will without the extreme abuse. No drifting this time.

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S given 75% (245-40-19-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 27000 spirited miles
I have these(245-40x19f, 275-35x19 r) on a 370z, which is a 3300lb car. Wet and dry traction along with noise and comfort have been excellent. The handling responsiveness has been a little too vague and the impulse response of the tires seems sluggish, which I attribute to the very flexible sidewalls. The one characteristic I'd like to bring out is the phenomenally low tread wear on the tires. I measured the tread depth and tweaked the inflation pressures at 1k mile intervals. I haven't been able to rotate the tires but the tread wear has been perfectly uniform across the tread on all tires. The tites now have about 37k miles on them now and are averaging slightly under 50% for remaining tread life. The tires started with 9/32” tread depth and the fronts are now at 5/32", with the rears at 4/32".

Driving on for 0 miles
Excellent grip in the dry, I could feel the tyre sticking to the road and had confidence when turning. However, the /50 profile sidewall was extremely soft and caused a lot of body roll and slow turn in, which spoiled all the fun from a sporty drive. Would not buy again, but maybe a lower profile would be better.

Writing about the Altenzo Sports Comforter given 49% (245-40-19-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
Seeing it being Australian engineered but made in China, thought it was alright at first. After approx 16000km, the front started ballooning despite maintaining tyre pressure throughout its lifetime. Only learned that it's quite often these tyres buldge in Bruneis market. If they made their tyres at a better quality, I'd buy them again as their price point is very attractive.

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza Sport given 96% (275-35-19-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 1100 spirited miles
Previously driven with the Michelin PS4S. And I was very interested in how the Bridgestone Potenza Sport tires would suit me. And gosh I like them. From sporty road driving to a lap at the Nurburgring! They provide a bizarre amount of grip and a great steering response. From my opinion very similar to the PS4S in all areas, only purely on steering response, the Potenza Sport beats the PS4S.

Writing about the Wanli S1088 given 33% (285-55-18-W)
Driving on mostly town for 0 spirited miles
Came from a pair of falken tyres and was comfortable taking corners at 60 and 80 on the mountain pass I normally go to. After receiving this pair of tyres from ozzy tyres I knew budget tyres were gonna be horrible. After a break in period I was going to take it to the same pass I normally take it and after leaving my house I lost traction 3 times before even getting there. Simple corners and moderate speeds will put you sideways. I have a steep driveway and in the rain it was a struggle to get out. People with non performance cars are probably fine to use these tyres as a budget purpose, but if you have any car over 200hp I would not recommend. Even if you decide to buy it be prepared to deal with the most annoying tyre sound I have ever experienced as it is a constant high pitch whir, enough to the point it made me go out and upgrade my exhaust just to drown it out.

Writing about the Federal Evoluzion ST 1 given 93% (265-40-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
I swapped from Bridgestone RE05 which came with the 370Z and for half the cost! I take 400bhp modified 370Z on track days and spirited driving trips (European tours) and I am very impressed with the performance of the Federal for the money... Bang for buck and they look amazing! Lateral load handling on track and road is great, XL tyres, great contact patch. Unsure in the wet, struggles when cold but once going no issues at all and deals with aquaplaning well when motorway pounding, very stable. Mega impressed overall and seem to be lasting well also... 7,000 miles (60% spirited miles) and a track day and loads of lift left around 5.2-4.8mm
