Nick, there is a reason these "Agreements" between owners and Porsche are not communicated very well. They are Confidential Agreements, and Porsche requires a signed statement as such. Well as I have not signed an agreement, for those with Conti2 tires fitted to the cars this is what I have been told: The Conti tires are 10/32's tread depth new. If you get a puncture in the tire it will require the replacement of all 4 tires. If the tread depth is 4/32 or greater then Porsche will pay for 3 of the 4 tires, the owner pays for the 4th tires which is the one that got a puncture. For example if you were driving Michelin tires and got a puncture and had to replace a single tire, you'd have to buy the tire so having to buy the one with the puncture is no different than any other brand. What Porsche is saying is that tires are to be replaced when they hit the wear bars which is at 2/32's I believe, meaning if your tires are at 4/32's you've used up 75% or more of the life of the tire. If the tires are above 4/32's then Porsche is picking up the tab to replace the 3 that didn't get punctures. A similar situation may exist for those requiring just rears due to wear with the fronts being replaced for free, but expect to pay for both the rears. Remember this is not being advertised by PCNA or communicated to dealers so if you don't kick up a fuss don't expect any assistance!! Get the service manager to call PCNA, the aftersales guy who looks after tires is Tim Reeder 1-770-290-3644
