- 2023 Taycan GTS

So on my first Taycan, it shipped with Continentals which were straight trash. They didn't wear evenly (or long), and were downright dangerous in the wet.
I replaced them with "scary warranty-voiding non-N0" Michelin PS4S and was super happy with the result.
Fast forward to my Taycan GTS, which shipped with P-Zeros (EV flavor.). I had my beloved PS4S fitted again on Monday in preparation for my trip to PCA Palooza tomorrow and...well...
I have to admit the P-Zeros were quieter. I'm not unhappy with the PS4S per se, but I can definitely notice a sound difference that was not apparent last time.
I guess my updated assessment is:
P-Zeros > PS4S > Tying rubber bands around the rim > Continentals
When I run through these PS4s, if I still have the car, I will likely return to P-Zero EV tires.
Sorry for the folks I've convinced to go this route; I was overly enthusiastic because they were such an improvement on the Contis I guess.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
