R P275/35R19 26.5" Diameter
Diff: 0.3" front bias

Yokohama ADVAN Sport
F: P225/50R18 27.0" Diameter
R: P245/45R18 26.7" Diameter
Diff: 0.3" front bias

I wonder how this is going to affect all those enthusiasts that were planning to swap there rim/tire combinations from their 350z's. I know it may affect my plans to use the Volks and tires I have as ALL the 350Z's have a rear circumference differencial bias required for there ABS and TCS controls. Definitely have to carefully scrutinize the details of the TCS and ABS systems for the new 370Z.
Not circumfrence
