I apologize for going off topic , so which tires did you end up replacing S007s with? Plus I feel they are lacking in traction as well. Mine is still in break in so I have to live with them for a bit. Thx

What are you doing with your Z?

Track, AutoX, Mixture of Street + Track, etc. Multiple sets of wheels? This changes what tire you should use.

I track (70%), street (30%), so I personally use Yokohama AD09s on stock size, especially since I don't have a square set of wheels / tires I can swap.

Consider reading through the Grassroots Motorsports track tire guide, this page has great information on different use cases related to whatever motorsport you're into / hybrid use.

Excellent tire! I have always like Yokohamas. I will probably go with the Michelin
pilot sport after the stock tire is done

Good to know you muscled those terrible S007s over the three sessions, they were not happy, way slippery. Nice feedbacks, though, informative video clips! Plus I'm surprised the stock brakes and fluid did surprisingly well. I will be at Firebird raceway, AZ, in a couple of months, assume will be much hotter. For sure I'm addressing the pads (Carbotech) and fluid (Motul) plus RE71RZs just to be on the safe side. S mode will be switched off, and I don't like that over-sensitive rev-match, will work the pedals myself.
Excellent choices in terms of quality, especially with Carbotech and motul, RE71RZ and RS’s will be such a potent catalyst for the Z, especially after the S007. Have fun at Firebird raceway and let me know how it goes! And in terms of braking and tires, share how they hold up on track, I’ve been looking at pads to get after they inevitably waste away.
