Got the P Zero tires from Tirerack, 20" AEZ rims from Performancealloys - will be delivered next week. Will show them once on the car.

They look really nice with the blue bodywork (not 100% sold on gold wheels with chrome window surround but whatever).

Aren't the R3s speed restricted? Not that I am likely to be going all that fast here in speed camera infested Switzerland. I was thinking about getting these as proper winter tyres, though will probably stick with P Zero Winters the dealership is suggesting.
I agree on the gold vs chrome bit. Looking into a simple DIY on foliage to match the winter wheels :)

The R3s are “R” rated, max 170 km/h. Max speed limit here is 90, so not a problem (if I ever do decide to become a criminal and do...say maybe 110 on an overtake, I still have quite a margin on those tire’s :) )

Cat on your paintwork
Not just a cat - she’s a Maine Coon, and knows it! My fault, - I used to let her jump in the BMW convertible when working in the garage. She’s obviously color blind.....the Beamer is black....

Has anyone been able to find a set of wheels and tires, mounted, from anyone other than Porsche or Suncoast? I keep going back and forth on whether I should get a winter set for my Turbo. I'd hate to shelve my Mission E wheels, but some 20 inch wheels with snows are probably called for where I live (New England). I looked on Suncoast, and the cost would be something like $7K. Yikes!

The Momo/Nokian combo worked fine over the mountain passes. The Nokians are a bit on the soft side on bare tarmac, but that will probably be a good thing once proper winter is here.

Today was definitely not my day. Got the AEZ wheels: 3 of them :rolleyes:. It's good that I only received 2 TPMS - easier to convert to a bicycle than a tricycle..... Good thing is that the wheels are beautiful. Bad thing is that TNT / FedEx do not seem to find the lost box.....

I'm waiting to see what yours look like before making a decision on my winter alloys :CWL:
