I have been thinking of going to 295s from my 305s for availability. I am afraid if I get 305s and get a nail or something I would not be able to another 305. Anyone gone from 305 to 295 on a wide body? There is only a small difference and I assume would not be any performance difference. The dealer said there would be no issue from there standpoint.

If so, keep in mind that a 305 PSS looks small on those.
Also, most people think the 295 PSS looks small on 11".

I don't have the sport techno and realize I may need to get spacers. My main concern is like I said. Ruining a tire and being able to get another one.

The MPSS does have a slightly more rounded sidewall on the rears versus the P Zeros. They are just as wide, but the slight taper on the sidewall is the difference.
The MPSS rears also have sidewall protection which the P Zeros lack. Was not expecting this when I ordered them, but was pleasantly surprised when they arrived.

I'm getting some "chattter" from a reliable source that there may be some MPSS 911 fitments being produced now to meet backordered demand ...
Also, seems like there may be an N-spec MPSS on the way for the 991.2!

It will be interesting to see how much more a N Spec MPSS cost than a non N Spec.

I am having mpss Thursday as I can't wait any longer. My tears are at the cords but I don't want to go Pirelli so I am going this way. I may put in spacers to make it look good.
I will report back on how it looks and performs. The dealer said I probably won't see anything and the performance will be the same.
