I do have snow tires; got them with the car. I'll never drive any car without snow tires. They aren't GREAT, but will have to do for now as there is plenty of thread left; also if I was buying them I'd probably go with something narrower and 16 inch if those can fit (not sure).

That issue I was having with the wipers turned out to be a loose bolt on one of the wiper arms... it was driving me nuts. I got out of the car twice at a red light trying to see if there was a chunk of snow causing it, when I got out from work there was no more snow and they still weren't working properly.

My wiper problem turned out to be different than what I initially thought. The issue came back this morning so when I got to work, I found this https://g35driver.com/forums/interio...r-problem.html which is exactly what I'm experiencing. Hopefully it's an easy fix... sucks that it didn't happen when it was nice and warm out.

I only have two major complaints about the G in winter driving conditions. It wont do deep snow at ALL, and the heater doesnt blow hot or even warm when the car isnt driving. I dont know if the latter problem is normal as I have never been around the v35 platform before.

Otherwise its fine. Not great. It is a 6mt and has winter tires. But its better than my old winter cars (Accord & Civic). The VDC system pisses me off quite a bit, and makes having fun a chore if anything. Driving wise its like any other RWD car, just gotta take it easy.

Here's a solution for everyone. VDC OFF! FTMFW!!!

Warning: Not recommended for n00bs.

Two winters I had with my Z. It's only snow tires and VDC off. Nothing else. Never got stuck and never had a problem accelerating from standstill. Fishtailing is expected.

For those with winters - what size tire/rim are you using (I have the stock 19s on the 06MT coupe). How much did you pay total?

Debating getting winters or just storing it as I don't drive much and can share the wife's car.

Problem. The VDC doesnt really turn off.

I'm using a staggered set up 225/45/R18 in front and 245/45/R18 in rear with SD33 Avanti Racing Alloys and Bridgestone Blizzaks LM-25. Brand new they are $2300 CDN.. I got them slightly used for $1800. Lots of tread, like new.

I don't drive the G as much in the winter and is just in the garage, but it's good to have the winters just in case.

Then disable yaw sensor. Everything shuts off including ABS.

And that would be where?

Don't listen to this kind of advice.

Sure VDC can be annoying when doing a standing-start at an icy stoplight, but it can save your a** when you're in motion and hit something unexpected.

You only need to know 3 things to winter-drive a RWD G:

1. keep the VDC on
2. do your standing starts in 2nd gear
3. make sure you have good snow tires

^I'm inclined to agree.

I'll add one to your list.

4. Good ole fashion common sense (a lot of drivers seem to leave this at home when driving in a snow storm )

I'd still love to know how to disable the YAW system, as I am too lazy to dick around with the car myself right now hah. But come lapping days next summer, It'd be nice to have a car that did what I wanted.
