So what are the best 20" tires for the Sport Techno wheels on CTT's? What did you pay for them? How long did they last (what type of driving did they get)?

 

I am very happy with the 255/55/20 Michelin Diamiris on my Cayenne S, they have around 25,000 kilometers on them for around one year and 4 to 5 months and the road noise is very minimal.

 

I would recommend the Michelins, Toyo Proxes S/T, Prada Spec-X(I have these). I haven't heard to many great things about Pirelli or Conti's UHP.

I have tested the grip on the Prada's and I am happy with it. Road noise is low and ride quality and balance was spot on.

 

I hate the Michelin Diamiris. I find them to be noisy, slippery, and exspensive. I much prefer the Toyo Proxes S/T, Yoko Prada, BF Goodrich and Pirelli options. Another tyre to look into is the Michelin Latitude Touring. Great All season option. Hope this helps.

 

I have Hankook Ventus 275/40/20 on my sport technos and they are also wearing out after 15 k miles, anybody else have a good review on this tire? Should I go with these again? Also, how are the Pirellis, good or bad?

 

I just replaced the 20" Diamaris on my wife's Cayenne S w/Techno's to the new Michelin Lattitudes, they're quieter and honestly feel like they handle better, I believe they're phasing out the diamaris - which is why I went witht he lattitudes.

 

i hate pirellis so I am not a good one to ask for my opinion on them

The Latitude is very nice but pricey compared to some of the others like Toyo S/T, Prada Spec-X, BF-G. Depending on what you are looking for in a tire.

 

I've had Diamairis, Latitude, and Prada Spec-X. For the money, go with the Spec-X. The wear is almost identical. The Michelins tend to ride a bit quieter, but the difference is nominal at best.

 

Does anyone have any experience with Sumitomo HTR tires? I'm getting my new wheels next week and they will have the Pirelli Scorpion Zeros on them but the Sumitomo tires can be bought for cheaper than most others...that's why I'm asking if they are any good...just the fact that tires don't last long at all on Cayennes due to weight makes me want to just save as much as I can.

 

Latitude Sport or Latitude Tour HP? I just ordered a set of Latitude Sports (19s) last week. The 4x4 Diamaris are loud ... really loud ... didn't really notice until I switched them out for Pirelli Ice and Snows in the winter.

 

12 months (~18k miles) on the Toyo Proxes ST and I'm very happy. Tread still looks about 75%, ride still is comfortable. No complaints about the grip.

 

No Latitudes for the 20" or 22"

 

Alpine - my new ride has the Yoko Advan ST's and they ride nice. Look more agressive than most of the others and seem to be a good choice.

BTW, the car is a beast at 540hp! It is pretty damn fast for a big azz heavy machine but I LIKE IT A LOT! Only upgrades to do is either the MoBridge or the Alpine VHub to integrate some of the cool toys.

 

CONGRATS!!!! PICS PICS PICS - was it what you thought it would be?

 

It is everything I thought it would be and more! It's in as near perfect shape as one can be (I've seen worse new ones right off the lot) and it has all the extra goodies already!!

It's raining it's azz off here today so pics will be forthcoming.
