Bought my new '25 Z06 in Jan '26 and immediately got a track alignment (-3.0/-2.0 ) and did 2 track days on big fast tracks after 1500 mile break in. Also drove on long open CA desert highways at high speed and cruising, as well as sweeping turns and straights in canyons in nearby LA canyons and Malibu hills and no issues with tramlining... this car seems like a great GT highway cruiser in Tour mode, tracks straight as an arrow on a smooth road, but you do really feel the road, and it will follow contours/shapes as it should if it's set up properly. That's what my hands firmly on wheel are for :-)

Had pretty noticeable tramlining when I got my '23 Z with OEM Michelin 4S tires with 4500 miles. Got a new set of Pilot 4S & now it only tramlines when I have the steering set to the middle or track setting. Not sure why, though. I've played with the different suspension settings & different combinations of suspension & steering settings. No difference with suspension settings. The only difference seems to be with the steering setting. With the original tires I had, no changes to the steering or suspension settings seemed to make the tramlining better/worse. I'm thinking the amount of tire wear also plays into it. Also, I religiouisly keep the tires to +/- 2lbs of recommended pressure.

The same thing happens with tread squirm on new tires, that is why new tires can feel more sloppy laterally than the old tires you just took off.
