Oh pur-leese, of course they aren't. The Supersports are recognised as being probably the best performing tyre in the sector.

So a batch on the same line can have different construction, i.e. more rigid sidewall?

I'm guessing the different OEM specs dictate different stiffness of "chippers" (the purple section of the sidewall)

I can't see the PSS' "courting problems" they may need a higher pressure to get the wall stiffer as I found when I replaced RE050's with Goodyear GSD3's

I had RE050's on my Honda's specific to them
BMW, Merc & Maserati also have specific versions
Then you have the diameter, width and depth variations

My XKR's Pirelli's has a small 'J' in a circle on the tyre as they were specific to Jaguar. I think they were 99Y whatever that means.
