I have a '24 with what I thought were factory Pilot Sport 4 tires.
Date codes are as follows:
Front Left - 3225 Right - 2022
Rear Left - 2821 Right - 4321
Can I assume that means that just the front left was replaced at some point before I purchased the car in July of this year? (I'm the 2nd owner)
I found this in the service history (dated 7/29/2025, mileage 12,152)
--- cut ---
Client request: Porsche Multi-Point Inspection. Findings: Recommended 4-tire replacement; right rear tire found with a nail puncture; alignment service recommended. Customer declined recommendations at this time.

Being that the right rear has a 4321 date code, I'm assuming that tire has a nail puncture that was fixed? I can't for the life of me find where it was patched, but I guess that's better than it being plugged, which would be pretty obvious.
My car was build 8/23. It it common for tires being installed on the assembly line to already be 2 years old as appears to be the case with my rears? I suppose perhaps Porsche mounted a bunch of tires to Mission E rims well in advance of them being fitted to vehicles going down the assembly line?
