Since the RS has been running them for a couple of years;

i run them 29F and 30-32R and got about 4 days or 16 sessions out of the rears IF I swap sides, otherwise about 3 days. But I’ve corded them in 2 days as well.

on RS the fronts last much longer but they heat cycle out so I replace all 4 every 3-4 days. Gave up after 18 sets and swapped for Hoosier R7 on 19” all around.

How did that affect your laptimes and longevity?

TRAKCAR

Still testing Grant, we expect 2 - 3 seconds a lap, I got 2 seconds so far.
life is 16-20 heat cycles but probably just buy new set every other weekend.
i only have one weekend on the first set and they look and feel great.

Nice!

Sorry to hear about your tire. I bought the 5 yr wheel and tire warranty for cases like this. Hope they get you a replacement soon as I would not feel comfortable plugging it.

That reminds me that I have wheel and tire insurance and 1 plugged tire....

Pretty sure there was Michelin Road Hazard Insurance document that came with my .2 GT3 among the paperwork...

In thought the N2 was the new compound?

The new compound that is on the 991.2 gt3 is the N1. Here is the link to the Michelin press release:

GT3s run different sizes, they go from .1 GT3s N0 to N1.in the .2 GT3.

The bigger sized 918 and GT3RS tires are up to N2, 918 has the ECO- rated N0, .1 GT3RS has the stickier N1, and the current GT2RS which run the same size runs the N2.

Good to know that the new N1 MPSC2 is available through P-car dealership, meaning that .1 owners can order them. From what I read, the new N1 Michelins are a huge contributor to the .2's stated performance figures and tested laptimes.

So pretty much just install a set of Trofeo-R's if you want N2 or better performance......they ain't cheap, but damn they are fast....
