Just in case you guys are wondering where we are. So far in most key Porsche sizes to make complete combos Michelin and Pirelli are no-shows. We are hammering them for anything they can give us. How bad is it so far? Take a look:
996 Porsche narrowbody:
We have 205/50 and 225/45 17, but NO 255/40 17 rears. At all.
996 Porsche Widebody:
We have LM 60 in 225/265 and 275 (265 won't fit factory 11" wheels) 18", but nothing else matching. Dunlop Michelin and Pirelli are no-shows. 235/40 can be used but not ideal.
987 Boxster:
We have 235/50 17 N rated, but no 205/55 17 to match them.
We have 265/35 18, but no matching 225/40 18 to match them.
Cayman:
We have no matching 235/265 18 combos in stock or confirmed.
We have 235/50 17 N rated, but no 205/55 17 to match them.
997 Carrera:
We have a few 255/45 17 Dunlops, but no 215/50's in to match them.
We have 265/40 18 Pirelli and Michelin, but no 235/40 to match them.
We have no 235/265 19" Pirelli yet.
Cayenne:
255/55 18 Lat. Alpin N1 is mid November. Scorpion Ice and Snow is est. 9/30. No need to panic just yet on these.
This could be completely different by Thanksgiving, and we hope it is. But for now it's the reality of where the industry is with regards to what they have decided to make this year. I'll keep everyone up to speed the best I can.
