I've got a 25MY Cross Turismo Turbo that came with the Pirellis which have driven fine but are nearly at the legal limit after ~8000 miles. Does anyone have any experience with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4s? They seem to be the only other NF0 tyre I can get for the wheel size (20" wheels - 245/45R20 and 285/40R20).

I had those Cinturato twice. Lasted about 13k both times, wore evenly and were fine. I've more recently switched to the Michelin tyres, not for any particular reason that i can remember! They seem fine, can't say ive noticed any difference in grip or what have you. I guess time will tell if they last as long.

Check black circles, there were other options when i last looked and they're usually pretty keenly priced.

CT4S on 20s.

I'm a bit surprised at the wear as I didn't think I was an overly spirited driver - but I did see a few people saying they'd worn a bit fast. Black circles only shows those two options as NF0 in that size and bizarrely my local Porsche dealer is actually (a tiny bit) cheaper for the Michelins. They came back with:

245/45/20
Michelin Pilot Sport 4
£272.16 INC VAT each.

285/40/20
Michelin Pilot Sport 4
£357.26 INC VAT each

Might just go with them and see how they go if you've not seen much difference!

Various tyre posts if you search. I had those Pirelli’s and didn’t like them. Just changed to Michelins. Much better in my opinion. The Pirelli’s just didn’t grip well and wore unevenly
