Winter tires mounted on Porsche Macan 4 EV 20” wheels

[Diego]

Got them today from my dealer and took them home (so I can decide when to make the exchange - here winter tires are mandatory from November 15th). Standard Macan 4 rims with Good Year Ultra Grip.
Tomorrow I’ll got my snow chains and then I’m done!

Great tire Diego,briefly the best among Porsche choices for this wheel. Falls a tad behind in terms of wet handling but it's the best in rolling resistance.As far as for snow & ice handling is simply superb,the car feels like moving on tracks and even in deep snow or snow over ice maintain control best way possible!!

BTW how much Porsche charge you for the wheels and how much for the tires Diego?In Porsche web site there isn't a price,only "on request".

List price was 4900€ but I got them for 4300€ with the free screen protector.

Nice! I'm super curious to hear how they impact range in winter weather. I'm going to have Pilot Alpin 5s installed soon, once temperature around NYC starts getting really low.

Trying to find rims - thinking of taking the Winter2 route. More modern tire with at least claimed EV design/enhancements over the Alpin5s. Alpins on previous ICE were great though.

It’s time to plan the tire exchange

Do you live in Livigno ??? What's is the impact on the consumption with 2,0°C?

 

[Diego]

No, north of Lecco at 750 meters on sea level.
At the moment just a little increase in consumption but I still have the summer tires. On November 15th I’ll do the switch to winter tires (but on 20” rims)

Put mine on yesterday. 20s with Alpin 5.

If you end up in any snow adventures I'm sure many of us would love a performance report!

My Taycans were the best snow car I've ever driven and I'm hopeful the Macan will be, too.

Got to be better than X5. We will see. Doing chains like @Diego in case.

Better than an X5? Be amazed if that is the case.

 

[DuckMan]

X5 not so great in snow/ice. At least compared to other vehicles I have had/have. Lots of mass up high and no control over 4 wheel drive parameters other than lots of abs if needed. Macan seems to have a bit more selection for reduced traction. Weight will still be a problem, but I'm interested in seeing how they compare.

Has anyone found 20" wheels for winter tires? I've only found the tires so far

Goodbye summer set:
