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.

Suggestion
re: tire wear, the obvious question is have you checked the alignment?
Leading evidence: 'Check alignment' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check alignment' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

Hello,
I am new to the forum and hope to pick up some info about my car. It is a Silver 2001 996 coupe. I have had the car for about 4 years have put 32K miles on it in that time, and with the exception of a set of the "sport design 18' wheels, I have done very little in the way of modifications, just the regular dealer services - I will probably get some new tires very soon. It has the Bridgestone S02s currently and they are not wearing too well - any suggestions?
Thanks!
Sunil
Howdy! Owner for 4 years.....1st post and no pics! Shamm Ond You!
Ton of opinions here. Do a search for tires...a very recent thread was about the topic. I have Sumitomo's
welcome!!
you might have heard - we like pics
as for suggestions - are you wondering what tires to buy or why they are not wearing so well - if wear is the issue, descibe in detail how many miles they have, what your presures are and what type of driving you do - if for which tires.... include your driving style and objectives, we will bombard you with info...............after those pics get posted
again welcome
Welcome to rennlist. The pic police won't let this slide, show us your Porsche and tell us what you've had to do with your car over the last 4 years and how many miles you've driven.
Barn, thanks for the introduction!
Sunil, Welcome to Rennlist. As others have stated it is customary for Newbies to post pics of their car. So consider this your official "Newbie Initiation."
Come on Newbie, post the @#$%^&* pics!
I feel much better now!
One thought on tires beyond brand... While occasionally you can get lucky with one of the local discount chains, it is usually better to find an independent shop that specializes in high performance tires. This is particularly true when it comes to alignment. These cars demand precise adjustments in alignment to both achieve proper handling and avoid rapid tire wear. Rennlist and/or your local PCA region can make recommendations if you don't know a good shop.
