Porsche have released a list of tyres for classic cars that they feel behave most like their original fitment. I suspect that it doesn't stop anyone fitting cheaper as long as they meet speed ratings, etc. http://www.porsche.com/uk/accessoriesan ... eapproval/ |

Why does it think that 944's after 86 had 16" wheels? |

Hi You are correct..lol it was the winter pdf Still only says ZR though on the correct pdf....adequate but should be Y on the later faster 928s...GT and Gts for example... All the best Brett
