My front passenger side Conti blew this past weekend and I'm waiting for my P-zero's to come in. What tire pressures are you guys running these at? Also, is it necessary to do an alignment if I'm getting 4 new tires? Can't wait to get these tires because that bright orange spare tire is just killing me!

Heh-heh-heh, the only other topic I know of that was hit with more passion is the 993 vs 996 topic. Search the archives, and you'll find a variety of opinions.

Must have missed that one. What was the the point of contention between the 993 and the 996? Is there really a difference?

Stem

If that doesn't get them going, nothing will!

after much experimentation i like 34 front/38 rear in the c4s. i believe viken goes even lower.

In terms of tire pressures, not much. However, there is a huge difference between the cars but that's another story.

You mean there is basically no difference in tire pressures?

I thought 996 had high-tech air, and that 993s used normal air -- or should I say coolant.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi Viken. Can you elaborate on the differences between the 993 and 996 since I do value your insite. I love the 993 and wish to get one at some point in time(wife factor sucks). Nice to have 2 P-cars in the garage. Information is good!!! Regards. Mike

I meant to say that both cars respond about the same to a given set of pressures.

Yes, both.

Yes, I like one more than the other.
