I'm aware. If you read the post I responded to, he is comparing them to his 991 version which as you say, is 180, hence why I used that in my post. I actually use the 991.2 Cup 2 N1 tyre on my Pista as it has shown to be faster and better than the K2, I have also run it back to back with the 240 Connect version, and the 180 is the faster shoe. As my contact at Michelin says, it's a somewhat more street friendly version of the original 180 version. He tells me that they tend to refer to them as the "sport" and "track" version internally.

Recently switched from Cup2s to Pirelli PZeros on 992 gt3 touring. Started noticing a droning noise in the cabin at 50kmh+, almost like “buffeting” or wind noise but with windows down. The tech at the dealer drove it for 10 min and says its coming from tires and I should check with my tyre guy. (without thorough inspection the tech says mechanically all good, nothing in the steering).
I suspect I will have a bit of a discussion with the tyre guy whether “this is normal tyre noise”.
Anyone had something similar with Pirelli or any other tyre?
thanks

I have both and have swapped them a few times. I would be able to tell just by the noise level. The Michelins are much quieter.

Of the stock tires that come on a touring, is there any consensus which brand would give the most compliant ride? Or are they all similar enough that it won’t make much of a difference?

Strong vote for PS4S here for Touring daily or 100% street.
