Tire Rack is often not the cheap option anymore. Most dealers and installers will beat the Tire Rack price without asking.

DO NOT run these on the rear with the F1s up front. The cup 2 tires and F1s are not in the same performance category and should not be mixed. Either replace all 4 with cup 2 tires or stick with another max performance summer tire in the rear like the F1 or PS4S.

Good point. There are N-rated 315's available now due to the 992 turbo. TireRack has some in stock and they're rated "ND0 Porsche"

Thanks everyone for the great insight here. I've decided to replace everything with the PS4S's (315's on the rear). Both dealers in my area are unable to get any F1's due to a supply chain issue. I'll post some pictures after they are installed tomorrow!

Is anyone running this tire? It has always been my understanding that fitments were only available from GY and Pirelli until now. Costco is offering a discount for a 4 tire purchase. I'm currently running the GY F1's. Should I replace the fronts as well if I port over to Michelin's for the rears? Appreciate any opinions on this.



How many miles do you have on the car? I am also looking to change from goodyears on c4s. I think sport cups are not porsche approved. N0

Sport Cup 2s are Nspec. I’m definitely going Pilot Sport 4S with 245/35zr20 fronts and 315/30zr21 rears, especially now that they’re Nspec and available on Tirerack and at the dealers.

I would not get Cup2s on a DD. It rains in Georgia and it can get cold. Cup 2s are not good rain weather tires and they will not work well in the cold. This is a fair weather tire that gets sticky when hot. You're going to get tons of junk stuck on the tire and thrown up inside the wheel well.
