Porsche oem michelin ps2

2000gsr · 07-27-2010, 08:52 AM

I'm currently running oem 18' ps2's on my car, blew a rear tire out, is it ok to replace that rear tire with a used oem porsche michelin ps2 which is the same size 265/40/18? My current tires are pretty worn and i just want to juice them until winter arrives (3 to 4 months) and buy a new set next spring.

Would you be replacing just one of the rear tires? The only thing to be aware of is that the Porsche tire has a different load rating (101Y) compared to the BMW tire (97Y), and that may cause some inconsistencies side-to-side due to the slight differences in tire construction...

You'll be fine.
