Default 2004 Cayenne Turbo 19" Tire Recommendations

Hey all,

Anyone have a good tire recommendation for the 19" rims for the 2004 C-TT?? We have been using Pirelli's since day one and I have been increasingly disappointed in the thier tread life - it's the brides DD. We also put 18 snows on for winters so it's a 2-3 season tire.

Thanks for the feedback.

A few threads on here about this recently.

I've had the Michelin Latitude Tour HP in 19" on the CTT for the past 2 years. We've put about 40k miles in that period of time, and the Michelins look like they'll last another 10k or so. I feel they're quiet, stable, with good traction - although they're my only frame of reference for the CTT as they're the only set I've driven on. I'd consider buying them again. Running about $1188 on some online dealers.

Otherwise, I've been reading good things about the Conti ExtremeContact DWS, a little cheaper at $896, but not N-rated (if that matters to you - it doesn't to me). Higher UTQG treadwear at 540 vs 440 (although we know that can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer).

I'm sure with either of these choices you'll be pleased with the longer treadwear, decent traction, and quiet ride.

This just seemed worth quoting!
