The Porsche Cup N2 & N2R are Michelin's Racetrack & Autocross Only tires developed in close collaboration with Porsche, especially for the Porsche Carrera Cup to deliver authoritative traction in dry conditions, consistent performance, leading grip, and the longevity needed to make it to the podium.
Porsche Cup N2 & N2R tires feature Michelin's Dry Adaptive Compound formulated to create maximum grip molded into a full-face, full-contact racing slick to create as much consistent contact with the road surface as possible. Built-in tread wear indicators on the tread face let drivers monitor remaining tread depth at a glance.
If you use a heater cabinet or tire warmers: the maximum heating temperature must not exceed the internal rolling temperature of the tires.
Above this temperature, the properties of the rubber can change and thus degrade performance.
The minimum warm-up time is 45 minutes to reach stabilization. The maximum heating time is 2 hours (beyond this, there is a risk of the rubber changing).
Michelin Porsche Cup N2 & N2R tires do not meet DOT requirements, and are not appropriate for roadway use. Michelin Porsche Cup tires are not intended for driving in wet conditions where standing water is present and there is the risk of hydroplaning; drivers should drive cautiously at reduced speeds if they encounter these conditions. Like all Racetrack & Autocross Only tires, Porsche Cup tires are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice. It's essential these tires be stored indoors according to Michelin recommendations.
On Storage: Tires must not be subject to:
- Direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight
- Sources of extreme heat and humidity
- Solvents, lubricants, fuels and other chemicals
- Ozone emissions from equipment such as a transformer, welder, electric motor, etc.
- Long-term storage in a stack.
Note on Tire Aging: Michelin recommends using Michelin Competition tires within a maximum of 24 months following their date of purchase (within 4 months in the event of storage in severe tropical- type conditions) or within 12 months for wet tires.
Los neumáticos de uso especial: Solo Para Pista y Autocross En Seco, poseen una banda de rodamiento con diseño liso y un compuesto de caucho optimizado, para obtener tracción sobre superficies secas. Estas características, proporcionan el mejor desempeño del neumático en aceleración, frenado y al tomar curvas. No deben ser utilizados en carreteras o exponerlos a temperaturas cercas al punto de congelación*.
*Algunos neumáticos pueden ser utilizados con una profundidad de 6/32" (4.8mm) en condiciones mojadas y requieren afeitarse a una profundidad de 4/32" (3.2mm) para condiciones secas.
