On my turbo, went to Sumis. Very impressed. THis in comparison to the stock contententials on this car, and the various on my previous 993 and 911. Very good bang for any buck. I would pay more if it would deliver.

Stay away from the hankook v12. I had them on my 335 after reading the great reviews on them from tire rack.

I gave them about 10k miles with a proper alignment to BMW spec and oem sizes. The tire felt numb. Not much feedback. Compared to my hankook I pike snow tires, I prefer the snows over the v12.

Never again. I think I'm gonna try nitto invo or the nitto nt05 on the Porsche soon.

At this point, Michelin doesn't make the Super Sport in a 295 width, so it's not an option.

I've been seriously considering a set of PS2s...

While I'm generally one to stick with OE recommended rubber and also considered a set of PS2s, I was intrigued enough by comments about the Sumis that I opted to give them a shot. I picked them up this Summer/Fall and am so far very happy with them on my C4S.
