Amazing you went through a set of tires already and I am still dreaming about getting my car !!
Hehe, got a set of cup2 tires slightly used ( those tires came With car when new) at in storage at Nurburgring, them tires just went ap. 1200km on street in including two 30min stints in rain at 2.4km short track and ap.15 laps at nur.
Those are For sale if someone want to buy. The tread depth is close to new.
How many track days did the first set last (Ring and other tracks separated, please)?
Well the pirellis just drove ap. 5 laps at nur, but then i drove them slow and easy on street during ap. 1500km as i recall. Then One full track driving at short Gotland ring 3km track. And today 10-15 slower laps at short 800m track. And now they are pretty much tost, and this it the better front tire.... Before today driving I did Swift front and rear left side to right side. And right side front and rear put left side. To get some more out of the tires. As the 2 tracks i drove was hardest on left side of car.
As you see tires are getting beat up on the outer edge due to My pace kill the tires, and factory setting is not For My speed/driving style. Some might get less understeer and make their tires last longer, but thats individual and very munch depending on pace at track. Not trying to be a smart *** here and say I am a fast driver but cant express it in other words( bad at this English wrighting) I Will go -3 camber in fron now and ap. -2.5 in rear. This Will make use of the whole tire when on track and more match my pace/driving style.
I dont drive street, only back and forth to tracks moore or less. Front brake pad is also up for change soon.

Hope you get your car soon!
Let me know if some One want to buy them.
I would be interested more, if they were new, but the real issue is you are in Germany
The shipping alone would make it painful
Thanks for the offer though
I was hoping some Northeast guys who are driving in the rain and snow would rather go with Dunlops and I could do a swap with them??
Regards
Ed

As you see then tires are getting best up on the outer edge due to My pace kill the tires, and factory setting is not For My speed/driving style. I Will go -3 camber in fron now and ap. -2.5 in rear.

Yes, and its crap, not that I did not now that but had no time to set it up. But now it Will be Done. Did visit a garage today With a friend of me who drive carrera cup. And we did go thru some things and looking For their best solutions. These guys are same nowhow in Porsche as the guys down at nur.
My cars plates is max out, wich is to little For me. in hand you see cup cars top mount, with that you go way over the top on the street car gt4, and hit very negative camber. See the difference in where the hole is in cup cars plate vs My gt4 plate. . Not that I need them on My set up as i am god With -3 front. Wich you get whit shims and 996/997 cup cars toe bar. Got some pics of a few damaged ones. As they are steel the are thinner than stock gt4 wich is alu i guess.
Oh, must mention you guys will want a hitcase with wide angle lens to your iphone:s and you better have the track precision app to go with it. Dang, it get you great films very easy, driver in film
