It's Winter in like, four or five months... however, shouldn't you already have a set of Winters in storage? That way you can just swap them out when Winter rolls around.
I dunno, that's what I would do if I was in a place that had a Winter season. But I think I'm the minority... |

never knew it goes from summer straight to winter. there is no fall season, which is the best time to drive out in the Z IMO

I would check your parking spot... it's probably not level, which is why your suspension seems uneven and your tire pressure was low

What good meds will your work badge show you checked out?
All seasons will at least be better for you and the other people sharing the road with you this coming winter |

Well, if it's not the parking space, I would definitely check the torque on the tire valve stem caps. If they are too tight it can restrict air flow inside the tire, which you absolutely don't want.

Continental DWS if you have to drive it in snow.
