    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    seems like michelin is leading the race;)

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    after i tried them all ,IMO pzero rosso is the best ..

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    Toyo Proxes RA-1 track tires are my favorites. Cheap, fast, long-lived, and very forgiving at the limit. I use them on the street too...

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    How about the Conti? Any comments?

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    Spoke to my service manager today - said the best tires for the car are either the Michelin's or the Pirelli's. He advises against the Conti's because of how the tire tread is installed - mentioned something about how Michelin/Pirelli's are threaded and the Conti's are simply glued. Also told me about multiple times where customers would have shredded tires. Unfortunately I have the Contis on my 987S (I like them, can't really complain, but feels a little soft).

    He recommends the Michelins for BEST handling, and especially if you are tracking the car often. The Pirellis according to him were the quietest, more comfortable than the Michelin's but do not handle as well.

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    I have always used Pirelli's. They are a softer ride and a lot smoother on the road than Michelin's.

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    some people say that
    pirelli are quiter
    some say that
    michelins are quiter

    some say that
    pirelli are more confortable
    some say that michelins are more confortable


    changed my wheels for factory carreraS with fitted tyres and they sent me Contis


    What i noticed in the one only day i got them is they got a very nice and heavy duty-looking at least- protective lip shape at their edge to protect the rims...

    bigger than the michelins and of course much more bigger than the almost non existent lip in pirellis

    Re: Vote for your favorite Tire Brand

    hOW ABOUT ASKING PEOPLE IF THEY HAVE TRIED ANY OTHER TIRE ON THE 997? UNLESS YOU HAVE ACTUALLY COMPARED THEM THAT WAY, IT MEANS NOTHING ---- GIVEN THAT THERE ARE N DESIGNATION ON THEM ALL.
