I don't want to go any lower cold as it already suffers a tad in cornering running 27 psi. Chime in here, will ya? Thanks

That is truly weird.... I have never had good luck with GY's. I switched to Kumho's, then BFG Kd.
Wanted to go with Michelin PS2, but weren't available in Z06 size at the time.
What I'm trying to say is maybe a different brand of tire wouldn't do this.
Or I have heard that some of the 05's came from the factory with incorrect alignment.
