The tire change must have been very recent, as my cabriolet, which was produced about four weeks ago, had Goodyears

those are Michelins all right! You better report back when you get it which ones and if they have the NA1 marker on them.🙂

Mine was produced this week, with exclusive design wheels, and looks to have Pirellis.

Will share photos shortly.

So TYD is still showing as "start production" on 11/9, but "My Porsche" is showing it as completed and the photos were uploaded today!

My SA says it actually reached Emden on Tuesday, so there is hope that it will get onto the RCC Prestige that has been docked there since yesterday and goes to Davisville.

For another data point, my C4S (with Carrera Classics) completed production on Nov 04 and got Pirelli P-Zero’s. I’ve had good experience with Pirellis on my Macan (but definitely prefer Michelins over all) — so I’m not too upset personally.
