Brand New Michelin Pilot Sport Cup Tyres - Page 2

The front two tyres were cup+ the rears were your regular normal
cup tyres. I will make sure next time they are not cup+.

Cool - i'd certainly be interested if there are more available

Amar do you have a source for these tyres or are you buying bulk and selling cheap?

spanner · 07-04-2009, 11:45 AM

I ended up with these - I only really wanted the rears but he didn't want to split them.

Anyone need / want some cup + fronts? Make me an offer! I have a couple of sets of these - the first ones bought in error!

I can post them anywhere in mainland uk pretty cheaply.

according to the pics, I would say 2 front were Csl cups compound N1 and the rear are porsche cups N0 compound extra line outside and 3 wide large band inside/middle.

Not sure about NO rated but that is pretty irrelevant but as Amar said the fronts are Cup+ and Rear Cup.

Cup+ are cheaper than Cup and more road compliant and not as sticky

the fronts are the n0 997 gt3 tyres - same load, speed rating etc as the standard cups but obviously the + compound - extra line round the outer tread block, 1mm extra tread depth.

The rears are standard csl cups.

If you could get the + in rear csl size then I reckon I would go that route but afaik they only do em for the Porches and e92 m3??

Any further input obviously welcome.

Cheers

I have ordered both types of cup's and they are different, left cup's for GT3, right for cup's for Csl, big differences....

spanner · 07-04-2009, 03:41 PM

Hi David - I take it that rear + is way too wide for the csl? Do you know if you can get the + in csl rear sizes? I have only seen them in front sizes so far??

Cheers

Rich

Edited to add - I like the wheels bags - where are they from??
