Its not "legal" requirement to have N rated tyres but it seems Porsche have been forcing it down drivers throats for so long that the Garages take it as gospel now.
When I asked a particular highly rated tyre place if I could put non N rated tyres on it the two workmen that heard me both sucked in air through their teeth and said "oooh I wouldnt If I were you, your insurance wont be valid" I said "no thats not right, I phoned them, they said they dont care" they didnt have any reply to that, then one of the engineers said "They are made specifically for Porsche cars, handling and stability etc". I said "Yes, but this is a Boxster, its one of the least powerful, it has a mid engine design so surly you cant just lump all Porsche cars into the same tyre requirement?" They didnt say anything to that either so I said "will you put on non N rated tyres at all?" and they said "we have done the odd few in the past but the drivers never liked em"
I gave up at that point lol
