    The alignment was so satisfying. Thanks for filming this.

    Was really impressed until at about 17.15 when the adjustable spanner came out then later when working over the front wing without any protection on it.
    Lovely looking car.

    I just got a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S put on my 991. Loving ‘em so far! Feeling much more connected to the road compared to the 6 year old Pirellis that came stock on my car. Plenty of grip for everyday driving. Of course NEW tires makes a big difference no matter the brand. Always a great day when you hit the road with fresh rubber on all corners!

    My friend, you can only judge the width with both tires mounted believe me it makes a difference, the tires sink in or stretch depending on the width of the wheel...love the setup and love the C4!!!

    I am a week away from replacing my P-zero’s. Maybe I will also do the Michelin. My P-zero’s are cracking on the inner sidewalls with low mileage, on my Turbo. The date code is 2017, seems a little ridiculous considering the cost. Love your car, the colour rocks!

    My Pirelli‘s have gotten noisier over two years. My car is a 2022 Targa. I’m noticing more road noise in the rear I got about 12,000 miles on the tires or 20,000 km. Do you think it’s time to change the rear tires

    Nice to see how it's done. Question : are these N-rated tires ? For the 991 Porsche didn't issue N-rated, correct ? I would like to fit Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on my 718, but am doubting because they are not N-rated....

    • @bobbygfl
      @bobbygfl  4 роки тому +1

      Tire rack had two versions. The n rated and the reg. The n rated was maybe $20 more per tire. Tire rack said there is no difference between the tires that they are aware of other than Michelin is saying on paper the n rated is guaranteed to meet Porsche standard specs. I pay the extra for the N rated. I figured with that kind of money 80 bucks doesn’t much matter LOL.

    Are your dial rings abs plastic or chrom?

    • @bobbygfl
      @bobbygfl  3 роки тому +1

      The dial rings are plastic with a Matt silver finish. They match the stock aluminum look perfectly. I will say I had to order three kits and cherry pick the best from each kit to get a full set that looked perfect. These things are cheap Chinese crap. But once in place I think they look great in my opinion they even look factory.

      Anders Jensen so much quieter. That’s the main difference for me, I don’t track the car. Also they appear fatter due to the rub bead on the fronts and rears. The difference in noise is really incredible.
