heartsurgeon is infamous around these parts

I think that lots of people report frequent tire punctures on recent 911's due to stickiness/softness of the tires. Youtuber Nick Murray has, Obsessed Garage guy has...i'm not alone in this observation. Also, don't count on dealership ever repairing the tire. They will always tell you to replace ( more $$$, less liability for then)

For no track work, just everyday easy driving, any idea how many miles front and rear tires will get on a 911?

Looking to pick up some Michelin Pilot Sport 4S now sure if they wear any better. Do the Pilot Sports make the ride more comfy over Pirelli Pzeros?

How dost thou drive? fronts usually go twice as far as rears considering proper alignment. That said I took 40k tires to track 3 or 4 times and got 20k. I run Bridgestone poll position they are best suited for my driving style. Michelin seems to road drive better but I love the twisties and corners which where I show the others the difference between the Porsche and their ... without driving like a fool. Mostly...
