It seems like in this Z i get wheel spin way too much. Even on a warm dry day at a stop light going straight... i will get some spin. I have about 70% tread left on the tires too. I dont lead foot at stoplights either. Even on a gentle engagement it will do it sometimes.
Does anyone else's Z have this? My 350z had no problems like this what so ever. I am going to get springs and spacers soon, then get another alignment, hopefully it will alieveate some of this.

While during normal driving I don't get any wheel spin, I will say that with any kind of spirited driving VDC is always kicking in. I've driven lots of high performance cars and the 370z is one of the worst when it comes to traction. I find it amazing that with it's power level I can still spin 3rd while already rolling if I put my foot into. I mean a lot of it has to do with the crappy roads here and the fact that they are always covered in dust being that I'm in the desert. But still, other cars I've owned or driven with more power don't have the same traction issues my 370z does.
Used to have an 09 touring sport and now have a 2010 NISMO. Both were the same with poor traction. I'm hoping some new tires will help with this issue when it's time for replacement but I'm not sure.
