993 c4 tracking help?

sanjay666 · 16 Feb 2006

Hi

can anyone please recommend a place where i can get the computerised tracking done for my 1995 933 c4 (4 wheel drive) converible done?

Preferably somewhere close to north london (where i live) or southend (where i work). Also give me a rough idea how much it should cost?

Also any tyre recommendations as need to change all 4....this is going to be an expensive month!

thanks

Welcome Sanjay,

I would recommend a full geometry check done- try JZ Machtech- not too far from north london... budget on around £200 for a proper job.

Tyre wise- hmmm. Personally, I just got a set of Bridgestone S02As which were £477 the set. Pirelli P Zero, Michelin Pilots are good too. Ask for N rated tyres as this shows they were approved by Porsche.

I got them from Micheldever down nr Andover... they'll do mail order if you've got someone who can fit them for you.

I think I'd want the right sizes on just to be sure it's as Porsche intended. Also nice to have a matching tyre type all round if poss.

JZ are the local choice, even though I'm in SW london and use AMD up near Bicester !

Tyre wise, there are choices.. also have a browse on
www.black-circles.com

for the 17" wheels = 205/50 R17 Z & 255/40 R17 Z

your 4 main N porsche rated options are Bridgestone S02-A N4Pirelli Pzero Rosso N3

Michelin Pilot Sport N2 Continential Sport Contact 2 N2

I'm running the Michelin's... all well wet & dry !
