I don't believe there is a N1 rear in 295/30/20 for the gt4? Presumably just a matter of time though when the new car is released. The N1 gt3 tyre is I am pretty sure a tyre with more performance than the earlier N0 so it's not impossible mixing N1 front (gt3/4 have identical fronts) and N0 rear might change the car's balance somewhat.

Indeed looks like 295 is now available with N1. Not sure if its homologated specifically for GT4 or 911.

Note that the N1 has an E wet grip rating compare to C for the N0. So possibly better overall/ dry performance and longevity comes at the expense of wet grip.

I've noticed exactly the same for the R8, where the Audi homologation PS4S has a wet grip B rating and the standard tyre has an A rating.

Camskill are listing them. Might see what my OPC says on Tuesday. I don’t really need the rears just yet, but I’d change all of them.

I have a GT4 and recently replaced all 4 tyres from Cup2 N0 to the latest N1. Drove all around Northern Scotland (NC500 etc) a couple of weeks ago, a lot of the driving was in the wet and they were excellent, didn’t feel any worse than the NO’s. They also have a bit o rim protection on the side wall that the N0’s didn’t have. Not tried them on track yet but I;m sure they will be as good, if not better.

Yep. Have seen N1 for GT4. Will be replacing mine all around when I need them next. Probably… after GT day 2 @ Donington.
