Porsche only selects very competent tires for their cars.

They are fine for the street. Some one else would have to chime in about the track

One reviewer commented, when reviewing the GT3, with Pirelli PZero and with Michelin Cup 2, said the Pirelli’s were “much better” feel on the street. They produced a “better ride”. I assume on the track is a different criteria?

My only complaint is the Pirelli is soft rubber, and seem to wear out quicker than other tires I’ve had.

Porsche really has the GTS dialed in and so glad I waited for the GTS and skipped the C2S although I am sure that is no slouch either.

Good luck to all- worth the wait. I will also say that this GTS is really a dual treat. Every one used to say the the GT3 is a great Daily and weekend warrior. I have had 2 GT3s and far from the truth. Was never fun to Daily drive but was a great weekend warrior. This car is 2 cars in one. You will see
I am not sure whether to love you or hate your for this post as my GTS is (it seems oh so slowly) making its way to port. Glad to hear you are enjoying the car so much!

Hey @Cachemoney I really like carbon fiber, but wasn’t sure on the matte version they just released so I went with the stock black brushed aluminum on my GTS. I believe it’s a GTS only option, so makes it kind of unique and I really like how it looks. Just wanted to throw that out there when Porsche gives you something free that is actually really nice. At least in my opinion.
