sorry AFIAK the 18" fitments are very restricted as they are focusing the MPSS on current and future model fitments ... hence little retro-fitting ... I suspect that given a couple of years it will even be hard to get 19" fitments what with the 20"s on the 991's et al...
at least you can get the PS2 and PSC in oem fitments...

If you go to the michelin tire site in Canada ie .ca, you will find an exhautive list of fitments from 17 inches to 21. And yes all the porsche standard sizes seem to be there.
enjoy

The 245/35/19 is a good front tire but given that it is taller, if your mk1 is lower at all than stock, if you hit a big bump you will likely momentarily get fender rub at the top of the wheel well - otherwise I like this as a front tire. The 265/30/19 runs slightly shorter than stock and for anyone with a 9" rim I personally think this is a perfect tire to match a 305 rear (which really is a full width 305 - think 310).
A perfect setup for me would be a 275/30 and 325/30 - to do the 275 you would need rotated front struts - but it would fit.

That's too bad, cause the street tires tend to be the de-facto rain tires. Oh well, maybe next year.
