I’m looking to switch to tyres slightly more user friendly for the winter months. I have quotes for some PS4S’s - ranging from £1230 OPC, £1170 OPC and £870 (after £100 cashback) non OPC. Given the sensitivity around the PCCB’s and C/L has anyone used Protyre Micheldever (£870)?

Thanks

I didn't think PS4S were Porsche approved for GT3 ?

I asked my OPC about fitting PS4S's on my Spyder and as long as they're the right size and Porsche approved N spec then no problems, even though they were not even available when the Spyder was sold new.

I have been looking to pick up a set of PS4s for one of my BMWs and think that the cashback is only with Protyre.

OP if you do go with Protyre it's worth using topcashback as they are offering 7% at the moment, so another approx £60 off...... no guarantee of it tracking but worth a go.

Also ask the OPC to price match as I have heard many will.

Are they N spec for the GT3 though ? I thought the only tyres GT3 N spec approved were the Dunlop's and Michelin that come on the cars new and whichever winter tyre they sell if you buy a set from them.

There are PS4S N rated tyres that fit the GT3 now. I've had mine done at the OPC today. The price was very fair too.
