3rd P-Zero - 16,759 - even wear/not as quiet as the MPSS at the end
4th P-Zero - I could not wait for MPSS

got a good deal from Tire Rack

did you consider the newly avail "second gen" PZero " N1" that come std on all 991.2 models and which Tire Rack now stocks ...most are wondering if these will address the noise and ride issues complained about of the PZero 991 " N0 " ( vs non-oem non -N rated MPSS many switched to these past 3-4 yrs ) since they debuted with the 991.1 ?

^^^^ some nice edge rolling. Neg camber in the rear or just hard on the turns with track pressures?

Oh.... and I see the same weird tread wear pattern. Interesting.

Thanks for posting

My understanding is C2 GTS w/ CL's cannot get MPSS... Something about the wider hips in back....

Can anyone confirm?

5,000 miles in and my Pzeros still look new actually. But loud!

I believe they are an option on the tire rack configurator and a few owners have them on their GTS'.

Tire shop looked up my sizes & no MPSS.... Online not much help, as tire rack/discount tire don't recognize the GTS. Are our tires the same size as C4?
