Tire help
Anyone have any suggestion on what tires to get on my 996tt. I have Continentals that came with the car they will need to be replaced in the upcoming months. The car is stock w/18in wheels

Thanks

You should ask Damon@TireRack - he is great source.

Personally, I am a big fan of the Yokohama AD08's

What are your plans? Will you be tracking and or modifing the car? Mine came with Sumo's HTZ III, inexpensive, wear great but will not be enough for heavy mods or track events. Great for stock street aggressive driving. IMO

Who besides Michelin carries 315's in street tires? The cheaper brands do not. I'm talking about 18's.
