Hey folks,

I need to 2 new rear N rated Bridgestone Potenzas for my 997 turbo, but non of the mobile fitters seem to have them in stock. Can anyone recommend where I can get them from.

Also just out of interest what’s so special about an N rating? Is it just a fancy Porsche speed rating?. They won’t add an OPC warranty without it.

I had to buy an N rated tyre for my Macan Turbo PP recently....all the online services were either saying Not available or six days for quickest availability. So I popped into my local tyre fitter who are an independent....they had the tyre the next morning.

Cheers guys

Ok so found a place near me via black circles that can supply and fit them for 480, OPC want 602 quid for the same job.

Quick question my car has a tire pressure monitor, does this add complexity and is this something that needs to be plugged into an OPC computer or should it just work?
