first off, Q45, I agree with you on the ignorance of the ignorant. to some, spending 1000 dollars on tires every 8 months is absurd but to me that is the price you pay
but I do have one point to beef with you about. the z's suspension is not very agressive. The max they allow the z to go from the factory is 1.5 degrees negative and the nominal is around 0.5 degrees negative. This hardly counts as aggressive or extreme. AS HAS BEEN POINTED OUT BEFORE, IF YOU WANT YOUR Z OR G COUPE TIRES TO LAST LONGER, ROTATE THEM SIDE TO SIDE BY HAVING THEM DISMOUNTED AND REMOUNTED FROM THE RIM ON OPPOSITE RIMS.
i run with 1.5-2.5 degrees negative camber and ZERO toe and I get even treadwear, even when I forget to rotate every 5k miles and go 7 or 8 k miles. The harder you drive the better the aggressive camber setups will wear as the outside of the tire spends more time in contact with the ground. lots of highway driving will kill a negative camber zero toe tire real quick, so take some back roads and hit the curves hard. it will wear faster but more evenly and safer.
