Hello

After hours of research I finally decided on all-weather tyres for my final spec before lock down next week. I was surprised to be told today that this was no longer an option.

I know that a good few of you don't approve of them anyway but can someone confirm this is the case. I just find it funny that in my final paperwork there is a page still showing all-seasons as an option. Also interested to know why Porsche have removed the option.

Many thanks

Just to repeat from the other thread, the tyres might not be available from the manufacturer.

I've had this at times over the last 20 years on the 928, sometimes it appears we have to wait for another batch.

Not much help when you're stuck 300 miles from home with an unrepairable puncture.

Thanks

There were going to be for 20 Spyders.. Looks as though I am going to have to have summer tyres.

Looking at the configurator its looks as though there are no A-S for any size wheel.

May not be the best time of year to source AS tyres, especially in less popular sizes.

Looks like only for the base Macan and the diesel.

I really rate the Michelin Lattitude Tour HP all seasons. Now on 21,300 miles and still got 5 mm all round. Good grip in all weathers and quiet.

Thanks

Very interesting.

Are they short and so just limiting them to certain models or are the implying they are only suitable for the base model and the diesel?
