Any Current Michelin Pilot S2 Impressions
The 225/40-18 avail front size for the PS2 , like from Tire Rack, is the front tire developed to OEM specs for the Chrysler Crossfire - it is not compounded or internally designed for the Turbo ( though it's the same size ) , which is why there is no N rating.
OTOH , the 295/30 -18 rear size is N and load rated for the rear heavy Porsche since it comes as the OEM rear tire for the current GT3.
Has anyone run the Turbo with the OEM GT3 PS2 18 " rubber ( .3 inches taller and 10 mm wider N-rated 235/40-18 front and 295/30-18 rear ? The front tire would only be 1.5 % taller , so shouldn't affect the AWD . Seems like it would reduce understeer at the expense of possibly a little more tramlining .

Interesting, I wasn't aware of that. They do list 2 different 225/40-18's though on Tirerack?
