I drove with 20 Turbo II wheels and Pirelli Sottozero winter set for 2 winters in Boston with no problems. Should be ok .. I bought the tires at Tire Rack

You can stick with the 255/40/20 and 285/35/20 and do the Pirelli Scottzero just as mentioned and you should be good to go!

Give us a call for special pricing

Quick note: As mentioned above, sottozero's are 285 in the rear vs 295 summer set provided by Porsche. No problem though. Tirerack will show these as a matching set and they are.

Michelin Pilot Alpin comes in 20" 255/40 and 295/35 (same as the standard on summer tires). I have just put these on my RS Spyder set, but have not had any snow so far, so haven't really tested their winter performance yet. (Not to bad performance on snow/ice free roads, but of course much softer rubber leads to reduced performance compared to summer tires).

I have the 20" Pirelli Scottozero. Great winter performance, even on dry roads.

FYI, I have one used front tire for sale 255/40-20 N0 Porsche. PM if interested. (had a nail in other tire, so replaced both fronts)
