I run Toyo Proxes T-1R on my 19" 997 rims - great street tire, great ride and grip, and wear has been fine so far.
Leading evidence: 'Run toyo proxes t-1r' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'best tire i could recommend' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Check ebay and you'll probably find some sets popping up' (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.

Price is right too - check EBAY and you'll probably find some sets popping up.

I've seen some guys run Falken FK-452's.....about 200 for the rears.
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.

Hi guys. I have a 996, which is riding on 19" (997) wheels and tires. My question is in regard to purchasing new tires, which I�ll have to do shortly. Unlike most of you, I'd rather sacrifice performance in order to have longer-lasting tires with firmer rubber. I know that probably sounds like sacrilege, but I just don�t need my car to perform that well - I spend most of my time driving around town at law-abiding speeds (usually anyway).
If anyone has advice for me I'd appreciate it. Is there any particular brand that makes longer-lasting (albeit probably worse performing) tires? Thanks in advance for any help.

pirelli p zero nero tires are really good an a last pretty long... they are most likely the best tire i could recommend.. might look at a yokohama yk520 but not sure if it comes in your size and its no where near as good at the p zero nero... the bridgstone mentioned above is also really good. maybe michelin pilot exalto a/s but we had a problem with them on an audi once so yeah... i work at discount tires by the way so that what i ment by we... best bet the p zero nero
I've seen some guys run Falken FK-452's.....about 200 for the rears. Very good wear, not too loud, and sticky enough. I'm going to get them when the time comes. I have them on my '85....lov'em.

Your problem is going to be the lack of selection for your 19" rims - I think I counted 4 manufacturers that even produced tires that fitted the profile and widths required for our 997 rims.
I run Toyo Proxes T-1R on my 19" 997 rims - great street tire, great ride and grip, and wear has been fine so far.

I am going to need them on my 18s coming up. Unlike JL though, I need really good performing tires becuase I habitually break the speed limit due to the fact that I drive to and from work when everyone else is sleeping and I have an open road. Unfortunately, i do need something that lasts long. I have the PZERO Rossos and they are loud and obnoxious. And the Pilot sports are really expensive, any recos.
