Having seen the full page advert that Dunlop has put out on how it's worked with Porsche to develop tyres for the Macan, I'm interested to see what make of tyre is coming through on Forum Members' cars. I've seen pictures of Dunlop on some of the Forum posts on 20 inch wheels but mine has come on Continental Contisportcontact on 19s. Am wondering if Porsche is fitting different makes of tyres on different wheel sizes (either for noise, cost or another reason).

Thats a good question Philk, if they are different, there must be a reason - normally cost fits in there somewhere!

Mine are Michelins........but I opted for the sports tyres. I think the continentals may be the all season tyres??
