    I just got a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S put on my 991. Loving ‘em so far! Feeling much more connected to the road compared to the 6 year old Pirellis that came stock on my car. Plenty of grip for everyday driving. Of course NEW tires makes a big difference no matter the brand. Always a great day when you hit the road with fresh rubber on all corners!

    My friend, you can only judge the width with both tires mounted believe me it makes a difference, the tires sink in or stretch depending on the width of the wheel...love the setup and love the C4!!!

    I am a week away from replacing my P-zero’s. Maybe I will also do the Michelin. My P-zero’s are cracking on the inner sidewalls with low mileage, on my Turbo. The date code is 2017, seems a little ridiculous considering the cost. Love your car, the colour rocks!

    Nice to see how it's done. Question : are these N-rated tires ? For the 991 Porsche didn't issue N-rated, correct ? I would like to fit Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on my 718, but am doubting because they are not N-rated....

    • @bobbygfl
      @bobbygfl  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tire rack had two versions. The n rated and the reg. The n rated was maybe $20 more per tire. Tire rack said there is no difference between the tires that they are aware of other than Michelin is saying on paper the n rated is guaranteed to meet Porsche standard specs. I pay the extra for the N rated. I figured with that kind of money 80 bucks doesn’t much matter LOL.

    My Pirelli‘s have gotten noisier over two years. My car is a 2022 Targa. I’m noticing more road noise in the rear I got about 12,000 miles on the tires or 20,000 km. Do you think it’s time to change the rear tires

    Are your dial rings abs plastic or chrom?

    • @bobbygfl
      @bobbygfl  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The dial rings are plastic with a Matt silver finish. They match the stock aluminum look perfectly. I will say I had to order three kits and cherry pick the best from each kit to get a full set that looked perfect. These things are cheap Chinese crap. But once in place I think they look great in my opinion they even look factory.

      Anders Jensen so much quieter. That’s the main difference for me, I don’t track the car. Also they appear fatter due to the rub bead on the fronts and rears. The difference in noise is really incredible.
