Acropora,

I have OEM 17" wheels & Dunlop snows at about 95-97% tread I am thinking of listing in the classifieds. These are the 993tt spec tires and wheels called for in the application per the owners manual.

PM for details if interested.

Thanks,
Grant

Yep, try Pirelli Winter Snow Sport 240. They are N rated, and they are the best tires I've ever tested on snow for the Porsche (225/40/18 and 265/35/18). They are N rated.

I have the Pirelli 240 too.
Very good tires and you can go up to 240kph/150mph. (at least if you are allowed to...)
