Thanks Eric, I think the h&r springs will be replaced by coil overs soon...

Suggestion
anyway the pyrometer seems a bit over the edge since I'm not playing with camber, suspension or any other setting than pressure and for that obviously a pyrometer will do the job but someone has some guideline I would save the money on a pyrometer...

For occassional DE and autocross use, I would stick with street tires.

Suggestion
you should use a pyrometer at the track if you can get to the car soon enough.

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.

I am considering to purchase a set of MPSCs. I am wondering what is the typical wear if you drive them on the streets. I will be doing ocassional DE and autocross. I do not drive my p-car on a daily basis as it is only a weekend driver. I might put on about 70 or so miles on a weekend. I also do not drive in wet weather or snow since I live in so cal. Is MPSC a good choice or should I just stick with pilot sports as I have now.
Thanks for all your inputs.
like eric said, if only occasional track and autox, stick with ps2.
if you plan to drive on street with mpsc, don't. very dangerous when wet and you will not heat it up enough to reap the benefit of extra stick. they will not last you more than 2500 miles on street. if that much.
The SO2A's are good tires. They are a redesign of the SO2 that addressed the road noise that many Porsche owners complained about. You'll find that the SO2A has a similar tread pattern to the SO3. I don't think that switching from PS2's will net you any appreciable performance difference as track experience and driving skills will weigh in to a greater extent. Your 996 is a very fast car on and off the track out of the box. The biggest jump in performance will be had with driving instruction and track time. Your equipment is not the limiting factor at this stage of the game. If you must spend some money, start researching various suspension upgrades (ROW sport vs x 74 vs PSS9 vs H&R vs etc.).
I really like the SO2A's that came on my car. Even on the track, the tire was an improvment over the P-zero's that my last turbo had. I heard some great things about the MP2's but have not experienced the tire on a 911.
I agree with earlyapex, you can but the stickiest tire out there but if your car is not set-up to take advantage of it, you, probably, won't acheive what you set-out to do in the first place.

Thats not always the case.
I'm looking for a an R-compound that will be able to take 6 or 7 laps in a row with 90�F without "desitegrating" itself as a street tire does... not a stickier tire.
Has anyone heard of Yokohama's Advan 032 R? They seem to be OEM fitment on some high end jap machine like the special 405 hp Lancer Evo version.
street tire will NOT disintegrate when tracked. if they do, that means you got the pressure wrong. i put about 800 track miles on my ps2, no blister no prob. it does wear faster than on street, but so will R compounds
Uau!!! Personally on my previous car a set of tires would last 2 track days 3 x 30min each... And last week I went to a "Porsche Driiving experience" event (
www.diaporsche.com
) and the cars at the track had their tires toasted after an hour driving... BUT both Porsche drivers and me never lowered the pressures to suit the track...
What kind of (hot) pressures should I look for in a C4S in the summer?
Thanx
What do you mean by "if you can get to the car soon enough"? anyway the pyrometer seems a bit over the edge since I'm not playing with camber, suspension or any other setting than pressure and for that obviously a pyrometer will do the job but someone has some guideline I would save the money on a pyrometer... anyone?
It means that you need to be able to get to the car before the tires cool significantly. Temps across the tire will vary based on over or under inflation. An old autocross trick is to chalk mark across the tires including the crown and see how much they contact on the edges
