Default Porsche of Southampton, Long Island

My recently acquired 2005 CGT had only 960 miles when acquired last week so I am considering replacing the original tires and doing a minor service [i.e. oil/filter change]. Does anyone here have experience with Porsche of Southampton servicing a CGT. I have used them for years for purchases and servicing my Audi and Porsche SUVS but do not know of their capability concerning the GT. Also are there any better tires available to fit the OE wheels?
Thanks

No experience with them but when the cgt came out, certain techs at dealerships were trained to work on the car. They should be able to tell you if any of their techs are.

Thanks for the input. I see Tire Rack has three sets of tires available. Michelin PS2's [O.E.], new Michelin Super Sports and the Pirelli P Zero's. Any suggestions?

I would definitely go for the Super Sports. That is an amazing tire. Positively life changing.

Not as good as a Pilot Sport Cup is it? Seems to be a harder less track focused tire
