I have a PCA instructor friend with a 996 GT3, who at the advice of another instructor, went to 39-40 hot on MPSC's at WGI. He says the higher pressures definitely settled the car down. Any thoughts on the higher pressures?

If one wanted to order a set of the PORSCHE specific Pilot Sport Cup "N" tires from a company like Tire Rack, how would they go about specifying this? How can they be sure they are ordering the Porsche tire and not the standard Pilot Sport Cup?

The only ones that are presently N-spec are the OE 997 GT3 sizes.

I have a question about MPSC. Actually it`s not n-spec rellated but this is the newest mpsc topic... I have a chance to buy a set of Cup`s for very good price (-50%). They are 2.5 years old but 0 miles. I`ve just bought a brand new set so I don`t need them until next summer. So are 3-4 years old (0 miles/km) any good for -50% price? Thanks!
