Porsche Experience Center Atlanta......Took the course "Carrera T - Master the Manual" this week in Atlanta. Great way to explore the capabilities of the T if you don't track your own car. Just for info, my guess is the course is about to be discontinued as the T is basically out of production till they introduce a 992 version. So, if you are interested now would be the time. BTW, the course is only offered in Atlanta. Also took a Macan course and it was fun but no where near as epic as the T course. You can learn more about the T " Experience" at https://www.porschedriving.com/atlan...m-peca-911tmtm

Default Winter Wheel/Tire setup

Hi guys,

Seeing that I need to buy 20" wheels because I have RAS on the car, is that true? See some of you are running 19"s. Also, any suggestions on setups that are not going to break the bank? Looking at ~$5-6K all in on tire rack for OZ or BBS. Appreciate any suggestions and thank you!

Hey dude,
It's been done, but several of us waiting on some final verdict data...

He's had some other tuning drama with his car, so may be a while...

Congrats! That's pretty much the same build as mine, just in Racing Yellow. It's a fantastic car.

You've got a bunch of other P-cars - will be great to hear your impressions.

+ at least one ^^^ I think Das14444 and myself would definitely be interested in a RS A comparo, as that is one of the earlier cars the T gets lumped in with given the changes from Base and the options possible. I've seen and sat in them, but never had any wheel time.

Just joined the "T" club myself... manual, RWS, FAL, Sport Design and the T interior, that's it. Drove it from LA to SF and then calibrated my impressions on some of my favorite back-roads; this thing is a hoot when driven hard on the twisties, and civilized enough to put up with a long drive and with the poorly surfaced roads in the SF Bay Area. I hereby also revoke any past snobbishness about the forced induction 3.0; this engine's a gem. @stout 's writing on the 991.2 base Carrera and the T convinced me to pull the trigger! It joins a GT4 in the stable, but I know which keys I'll be reaching for when it comes to most back-road and long-distance drives!

Great choice and congrats! From another owner of a Racing Yellow manual T with the Carrera T Interior Package in Racing Yellow, you chose wisely! 23,000 miles on mine now and I still love every journey, big & small! Enjoy!

Congrat! Would love to hear your thoughts between T and GT4. I've been contemplating on switching to a GT4, but unsure if it's the right choice.
