Default Michelin Super Sport on a 964?

I'm thinking of buying at set of 18" Michelin Super Sport for my 964 C2.

But:

1. They are not Porsche "N" marked, so i dont know how well the 18" will work on a 964.
2. They are not avaliable here in europe so there is no one how seems to have tested them on a "old" 911.

So... Is there anyone here how have try them out on a 964?

I have them, and would recommend them 100%. They are very sticky, predictable, great in the rain, quit, and one of the more compliant tires which helps when running 18s.

Tirerack is good for info and reviews:

Wink +964

I have been on mu super sports for about 18 months and love them. Yes, they are quiet, great traction, and required little or no weight when mounted. filled with nitrogen and pressure is still within 2 lbs. since original fill. I expect by looking at wear rates (12k per year daily driver for commuting 10 miles round trip and a jaunt to Atlanta occasionally), I should get another 2 years before I need to replace.... unless I find a set of Ruf rims... I want 18" but can't find any and I found a set of 19" but would require new tires also. I haven't been that good of a boy this year... Mrs. Clause would would make me sing soprano for spending $4200 for new wheels and tires...
