Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am surprised - I'm running my first car with Cup 2 tyres, a 718 Spyder. They've done 4.5k miles including about 250/300 miles on track, mostly (not all) in the dry and some of them pretty fast. I still have about 4.5mm all round. I've driven them in the rain, in the sun, in the cold (3 degrees plus), in the heat (30 degrees plus). They've been impeccable on everything but a cold and damp Donington, where they were very tricky. I'd read that they were lethal in all but a narrow operating window, and wore out as soon as one looked at them. They're ace. They're N1 stamped - is this a radically new tyre from the N0?

POST 2Original post

Same experience here. Did over 5000miles in my first 718Spyder and traded it in to OPC without any issues on tyre wear. I did quite a few track miles with mine as well. They were only about half worn at that point. Much better life than all my previous Cup2 shod cars, some of which needed new tyres at under 4000 miles with a few track days in the mix. They were still a bit tricky in the cold and wet though.

POST 3Original post

4500 miles on mine so far. Ran them on my GT4 daily throughout the winter. I only gave up on a journey once as it started snowing heavily on my way to work. Wasn't worth the risk carrying on. I retreated to the wife’s trusty UP GTi!
