Continental Vmax tyres on GT2
I am getting a new set of wheels for my inbound GT2 and intended to keep the factory wheel/tyres as is so was looking at the options for tyres.
The options seem to be:
Michelin Sport Cup OE NO
Pirrelli Corsa (can't find any reference but presume these must be Porsche "N" approved since Markus has them on his GT2 !)
Continental Vmax - these do not have the "N" Porsche approval but are available in GT2 sizes and are being fitted to GT2s by the likes of Cargraphic.
The first thing that strikes about the vmaxs is the tread wear index is 280 which compared to the Michelin's 80 would indicate that these are very "hard" tyres...
Baring in mind my car is for road use only and a bit less noise/harshness would be a benefit, does anyone have any experience with these tyres or comments to make ? BTW the vmaxs are hellishly expensive at £650 each for the rears
