Do all Z's front end skip or jump when turning at slow speeds full left or right?

summer tires i'm assuming + cold temps/cold pavement = tires skipping at full lock.

also live in PA with a Z for 6/7 years. happens in the fall before putting mine away for winter.

My wife's Corvette GS does it also with Michelin Pilot Sports. It's just a summer tire thing in the winter.

Normal for a 370Z. Wider tires, colder weather, and lighter vehicles all contribute to tire scrub. Composition of pavement will also have an effect.
