2011 Porsche 911 Tires

With roots that go all the way back to 1963, the Porsche 911 is regarded by many as the definitive Porsche: 2+2 coupe with a rear-mounted air-cooled engine and hot performance. The 911 has evolved over the years, but its concept and layout are still the same as they were almost 60 years ago. For your Porsche 911, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup, Bridgestone Potenza RE050A and Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires would have been OEM from the factory. The 911 is available in Targa, Carrera, Carrera S, Carrera 4 and Turbo trim levels.

When it’s time to shop 2011 Porsche 911 tires, remember that this model is designed for a staggered fitment, with different tire sizes front and rear. Rear tires could be 295-30R19, 295-30ZR19, 295-35R18, 295-35ZR18 or 305-30ZR19, while front tire sizes could be 235-35R19, 235-35ZR19, 235-40R18 or 235-40ZR18. We’d recommend premium all-season tires like the Continental ProContact RX -SSR (45k mile treadwear warranty), Bridgestone DriveGuard (50k mile warranty) and Michelin Primacy MXM4. For more spirited driving, there’s ultra-high-performance tires like the Yokohama Advan Neova AD09 or Michelin Pilot Sport PS2.
Just remember that summer and UHP tires get their great cornering and braking performance from a softer, stickier tread formulation, but these tires will stiffen and lose traction on colder days. Summer-UHP tires shouldn’t be used when temperatures are below 40-45 degrees F.
