Tyre life and replacement
Yes they did, I believe for 18 and 19” wheels only. Not sure if that successful if needing changing at 13,500 miles

We had Hankooks on the CX-3, got rid of them way before they needed to be replaced, thought they were horrible from a grip and noise perspective.

If you want Michelin and Porsche approved all season tyres, then these are a great choice:Neil1911 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 5:29 pm Yes, the lack of an N rating only dawned on me after posting, a shame as they're rated as quieter and more fuel efficient. Porsche probably just want to keep selling winter sets or am I just being cynical?
Motorways have probably only accounted for 3 of those 13k miles and while I didn't specify the sports chrono package I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed the handling. Maybe year two ownership will be more restrained and kinder to the rubber ........... then again maybe not!
I think the Michelin Latitudes are edging it, for comparison purposes and 1 less decibel of road noise, at the moment.

Mine is on Latitudes sport 3 and they seem very good. 18,000 miles and still 4+ mm.

Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 factory fitted to be precise. No reason to criticise them, durability apart, to be fair.

My car came from the factory with Michelin Latitude Sport 3 tyres, and I recently had them replaced at 22500 miles with the same again. The fronts had life left, but the rears were getting low and with winter coming I wanted decent tread depths again.
