Last winter I bought 17" Dunlop Wintersport M+S snow tires for my 1999 996 C2 coupe after seeing them as Porsche recommended tires. Now the TSBs make no mention of Dunlop winter tires, only of Pirelli Winter W240 Snowsport N1 tires. The Dunlops had great traction but I'm wondering if anyone has feedback (good or bad) on the dunlops or whatever you use during the winter. Maybe I should get some Pirelli's...

Thanks,

Mark

I bought the dunlops 265/35/18r and 225/40/18 front. I don't have any badges on my car (99 996 C2) and you would swear that it is a C4. I have had bilzzaks on an M3 and pirellis on an Mcoupe. I have nothing but good to say about the dunlop. I know that the 996 has a better weight distrbution for the snow but I think I will buy dunlop again.
