Same size wheel/tire on all 4 corners vs VDC

Can any of the folks running a setup like this on the 370 confirm whether VDC is still operating properly in this configuration if you leave it ON ?

I'm not running a setup like that, but yes... I can confirm that VDC, SRM, ABS, power-steering, air-bags, windows, etc., will all still operate properly.

Don't worry. You're all good.

yes, I run the same size all around and it works just fine. The stock tires are almost the same diameter front and rear to begin with, just different widths.

Thanks for the feedback

If I recall correctly on the 350Z you had to avoid a setup where the outer tire diameter on the front was larger than the rear, otherwise you could upset the VDC system. Same size all around or larger on the rear was ok. Just wanted to double-check in case there was something special on this issue for the 370...

Why do you want a drag setup. Stagger for track

I just set up mine with 285/35/19 RE11s all around. From the limited time I've had it on the road, it feels great. They are a bit louder than stock imo. Plus, 285s are $21 cheaper than 265s....$318 vs. $339 on tirerack. I didn't mind saving 80 bucks.
