I think you'll find they are comparing them to Cup+ on E92 and 997.

Ive not tried them yet but I think they look a fantastic tyre for all round use.

I cant compare them to CUPS as I've never driven on them, but I had Super Sports fitted on friday and after a weekend of good driving on them I can confirm that they are officially AWESOME

Obviously this is just on the road, and I'm yet to have them on the track, but compared to PS2's they are like night and day. The biggest difference I've noticed is how quickly they heat up, they offer a lot of grip very quickly.

Cant wait to test them on track.

A little private one way road in the Eifel region should fit the bill at the end of April I'll be there on Full PHAT 19" CUPs for comparison purposes obviously

Yes most definatly - CSL experiment's here we come

Although I'm sure you'd be quicker with or without CUP's so it wont be much of a fair test, you can have a lap in mine by all means though

I'll have BIG breakfast before laps to give you a chance VERY kind offer of piloting your Old steed
You sure she's up to the job ? If not, I'll just borrow her wheels with the " Fancy CUPs "

thanks for the head-start!

I'm sure she would be up to the job (well I bloody hope so as that's what I've bought it for!!!) but I guess just borrowing the fancy CUP's would be a much better test as our suspension and brakes etc are different!

Sounds like a plan
