Boom! Another 991 convert. Well done that man. Look forward to the interior pics, that's a lovely combo. Re the tyres just another thing to hate about the sh1Tty Pirelli's :nooo:
You could of course put some Sport techno's on, with the 305 rears and strangely there's a lip, and you can fit proper tyres (Michelin's) to those rims.
Coincidently I know someone who's selling a set reasonably priced for a 991 C2S.. :grin:

Welcome to the aural magnificence of the naturally aspirated 991 club! :thumb:
Tyres are completely normal and one of the chaps from Pirelli told me that the rears are like that so that they slide more progressively. Conversely the fronts are about a very vertical and stiff sidewall for turn in response.
The Pirellis seem absolutely fine until they get old when they go hard. I have a new set and they're fab, especially sticky in the dry. Having said that the Michelin PS4S seems to be the go to until Porsche approve the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport.

Thats a nice colour combo. How much did you pay for it (if you dont mind sharing)? I am also looking to sell mine privately (C2S PSE Chrono convert) but Parker valuation gives my 2012 private to be £38.9k! The valuation for franchise dealer purchase is £42k. The cheapest 2012 i can find on autotrader is £53k. Thats a big difference in valuation. I know colour and mileage affects the valuation but I am torn between part ex or selling it privately.
