Re: G35????
Sorry to come in late here. Nissan made an attempt to rectify the premature tire wear issue by issuing a TSB to change the alignment specs I believe? The problem was most prevalent on '03 & '04 models (350Z). I hadn't heard of issues on the G35, but we didn't have many of them come through the dealer I worked for (I worked sales, not service, BTW).
I also found this website, didn't dig deep, but glanced at it. Maybe it will help?

At any rate, I can tell you I would steer clear of the 03-04 G or Z just because they did have a few issues, (which were remedied by campaign bulletins, or TSB's for the most part) but may sour your experience with the car if it visits the shop too many times.

I've had my G for almost 6 months and I haven't had any tire issues so far and I've almost driven 10k miles. The only problem is the clicking noise from the rear axle and that can be fixed under the powertrain warranty but it's a pretty reliable car.

Re: G35????
I have had 2 G's and neither one has had tire issues. If you are getting a car to mod it for cheap, then this is not the car for you. Most mod's for HP hardly do anything for the car. I think at one time there was an estimate done that it cost's around 100 dollars per HP for this car. About the only way to get some real HP out of this car is to go FI. Now if you want a car that is reliable, and can take a beaten and get up and ask for more, then this is the car for you. I would suggest getting an 05 and up 6MT, that will give you the rev-up engine.
