2018 911 turbo needs 4 new tyres.

Are MPS4S the no brainer choice?

Car has just had full geo at Center Gravity.
Chris suggested it needs a specialist to fit new tyres.
Also been advised by GT4 owner to look for high speed balancing.

Is it an OPC job?

PS4's are a great choice for the Turbo. Just make sure you find a good tyre fitter....

Are MPS4S accepted as an N rated tyre?

Someone mentioned insurance issues if not N rated.

Someone was factually incorrect.

There should be some available in your size with the N rating now, just check on the common tyre websites.

I'm a Michelin fan and have been for many years, they make great tyres. However, my car came with the equivalent Good Year Eagle F1s from the factory and I'm happy with them to be honest. So perhaps another consideration.

Where abouts are you based? If in the south East, Tyrepoint in Maidstone are very good.

Bear in mind you also need a tyre place that can handle the centre locks

If the pic of the car above is his, then it doesn't have the CL's.
