First; fill up on air. Most gas stations have air pumps. This should be fairly obvious but one can never tell with this kid.

You've owned your car for almost a year now, yes? If you have never gotten an alignment on the car do it regardless of if you change tires and every 6,000 miles or so after that (or every other oil change if you actually follow the service manual oil change interval).

I would follow what some people have already recommended regarding the topic. Get a separate set of rims specifically for winter use. Stock base wheels often go for $600 or less. If you're REALLY hard up for cash, they hold value pretty well and can usually be sold for as much as you bought them for unless you do something INCREDIBLY stupid like put a crack in them. Don't do that.

Please retrace your path of logic on this topic. How you went from one tire being under inflated to needing to change all four makes little to no sense to anyone involved. Get a proper tire tread gauge and measure your center tread depth. If your sidewall is worn more it's an alignment issue, but as long as you get it corrected and have tread left on the tire, there's no reason you can't continue using them.
It's so nice to see your sincere act of kindness to Minsu today. This kindness keeps me here as
well on the 370Z forum.................
