Classic 10-spoke alloy design. Wider dimensions at front and rear (8.5 and 11.5 inches, respectively) create a larger contact patch. As well as enhancing the car’s presence on the road, this provides greater traction and grip. The visual effect is further augmented by the centre spokes in GT Silver Metallic and the high-gloss polished outer rim.

The Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tyre was specially developed for the 911 model range (Type 997). Originally designed for competition use, it offers extremely high levels of dry-weather grip and a high-precision steering response. The result: stable handling and faster lap times. This capacity has also been augmented with excellent control in damper conditions. As with all high-performance tyres, the low-profile shape can be more susceptible to aquaplaning.
