Here is mine 991 CS in the Norwegian mountains.
Equipped with 20" Michelin alpine tires.

I like them a lot. Much better handling on snow than the Pirelli Scottozero. But i think the Pirellis are better on dry.
But for me, as you see, its all about traction on snow.

Thanks. Im trying to decide for next season. Im leaning towards your set up as snow performance will be a factor and Im not a big fan of the Pirellis either.

Thank you very much my friends : )

I have not winther tyres because every year in Bologna snows 1 week only , and in theese weeks I prefer to use my Audi SUV with Nokian M+S tyres ,also for long distance trips in wither.

I use my 991S everyday to go to work ( I live in the center of Bologna and I have to to 5 km only) , I can use Porsche or Suv , but Porsche 991, sport plus and summer tyres ( cold) when the temperaure is nearly 0°C is too funny even at low speed . I'm an experienced racing driver with Porsche so I know what I do , or I think to know

I have "****" pirelli tyres now , the car is difficult with rain and a little dangerous ( the back slips easily) , I have not SPASM ,I put eibach -30 spings only . I have in my home the SPASM spoiler , I'll mount it at the next visit to the workshop
I took theese pictures myself this sunday , my wife invited a lot of her friends at home so I decided to keep the car and have fun myself in the near hills

It was funny because I did my trip during at 1.00 pm , when all other drivers have lunch : ) There was anyone in the street so a can park the car in the middle of the street , run far and take some pictures

Thanks
I took it from the window at my log cabin in the mountain during christmas time.
This was the first time the car was packed with snow.
