Tire Recommendation- 23 Taycan GTS

[KLHubb]

For years, I have used Michelin's Pilot Sport 4S's on both my 997.2 911 and my Taycan 4S.
They are great tires, but do get niosy as they wear. I am very interested in the Hancock EVO's to get a quieter ride on the Taycan.

I've mentioned this before on our forum about tires, plus I've garnered 50 years of experience with high performance cars such as Maserati's, Ferraris, Porsches, Lancias, Citroen SM's, US muscle cars etc. Michelin is one of those concerns that puts a higher amount of their net revenue back into research and development to stay a step ahead of the competitors. Other corporations with auto related products that do this practice with their profits are 3M and Krylon. I'm sure one can find several more corporations of products we often use utilizing this strategy with the knowledge of their financials.
When I've obtained a new or used vehicle with tires other than Michelins it is inordinate that I don't use "Bibendum" for replacement tires. One of the main factors of these tires with our whirring electric vehicles is that Michelin's run quieter let alone the superior qualities in the other areas of tire performance attributes.
Good luck in your selection.

I lean toward Michelin for all my performance tires and all season tires.
I’m expecting I will get more miles than my Pirelli PZero’s which I expect to get 17K to 18k. Michelin Pilot sport only get a warranty of 15K miles instead of 30K because they can’t be rotated front to back but I’m expecting I will have plenty of tread to get a minimum of 20K miles and maybe as many as 25K which will take me a minimum of 4-5 years but at 6 years I will put a fresh set on because of time rather than tread wear. If it costs me $1500 every 5-6 years that’s fine with me.
