As much as I'd like to buy a fitting set of Pilot Sport 4S tires for my Taycan, I am concerned how those tire sidewalls, especially lower profile versions, will hold up to the cornering loads on vehicles much heavier than the cars those tires were originally designed for.My understanding is the NF# tyres for Taycan have a re-enforced sidewall to handle the additional weight of the EV.
If I'm going to buy high performance summer tires, I want them to be able to hold up safely in repeated hard cornering driving otherwise I don't see the point in upgrading personally.
For me I'll probably stick to Porsche OEM selections for summer performance tires until more 3rd party EV tire options are available, and they will be for sure.
