A couple of weeks ago I suffered a catastrophic blow out when the the inner rim of one of my tyres wore through. Other people on this forum have seen the same, all wear markers are ok but the inner rim was very worn. All 4 tyres were replaced for the same reason. I’ve got not problem with this, it’s what happens on high camber cars.
I just want to report what happens if the NF0 tyres are replaced by another spec. I’ve got a lease car, they didn’t care what went on if it met the size and speed specs. The tyre fitter saw N and knew Porsche was required but fitted 911 spec tyres (NA0). For grip in wet or dry and for handling they are fantastic, much better than the NF0 but I’ve got 7% less range. I’m very happy with this compromise. All goes to show that our tyres are clearly designed specifically for our cars.
