Apologies for another tyre question, but I am new to the world of Porsche.
I am trying to put Pilot Sport 4S tyres on (N-rated). I can find the rears, but I can't find the fronts anywhere.
Does anyone know where they sell them? Failing that, what tyres would you recommend? It's currently on P Zeros, which I am not a fan of, and Cup 2s won't work as it's being driven daily.

Is the size listed on Michelin's own site? That would be my first check, in case they've changed what's available.

The only N rated (911) matching pairs in a regular road compound are the two OEM fitted ones - Goodyear Eagle F1 and the PZero (PZ4). I think you'll find that the 315/30-21 PS4S you found has an NDO homologation which is for the Panamera.
Goodyear is a decent tyre but the rear comes with a stingy 5.5 mm tread depth from new. I ran them on the GT3 for a few thousand miles before I traded it (I didn't need a super sticky track biased tyre) and have them now on the Turbo. They are probably your best bet if you want a ln N rated alternative to the PZero.
You can go a size wider all round as posted on RL forum in a N rated PS4S i.e. 265/35-20 F and 325/30-21 R. I might consider that when the time comes, but it's probably 2 years out so haven't given it much thought.
