Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Porsche 964 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Bien que trop tôt pour se prononcer sur l'usure, ils semblent décents pour le moment. J'ai piloté la plupart des autres pneus dans ce segment (MPSS, conti SC 5 et 6), en comparaison avec le PSS - J' poussé au max pour faire la différence la plupart du temps, j'ai trouvé le SC5 assez nul, avec taux d'usure choquant, de pauvres sensations et une gestion pour combiner des flancs très doux avec une souplesse verticale raide. Le SC6 c'est une autre paire de manches, une adhérence sur sol mouillé fantastique (beaucoup plus que le pss ou le PS4), une meilleure sensation et équilibre de conduite latérale / verticale, mais (et j'ai environ 1000 miles sur ceux-là sur une audi 4wd lourde) l'usure promet d'être pauvre.
Too early to comment on wear, thought it appears decent to start with. I have run most other tyres in this segment (MPSS, conti SC 5 and 6), in comparison to PSS - I am hard pushed to tell the difference most of the time, SC5 i thought were pretty rubbish, shocking wear rates, poor feel and managing to combine very soft sidewalls with stiff vertical compliance. SC6 another kettle of fish, fantastic wet grip (much more so than pss or ps4), better feel and balance of lateral/vertical ride but (and I only have about 1k on these on a heavy 4wd audi) wear is shaping up to be poor.
