I changed over to Michelin when my new 992S came with 'Goodyear" of all things..and I love the Michelin's..
Porsche parts reviews
2nd set of Pirellis on my 991 Turbo S. Got them when there weren’t any Michelins available. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever.
Just got some new PS4S and they are incredible
Ferodo 3.12 pads ( 6 track days+? we will see)
I too just got a new one from Rockauto. Denso is the OEM manufacturer and I felt it more worth it than trying to rebuild. The 924S is blowing cold now after the r134a conversion.
brakes on a cayman are pretty straight forward. DO NOT reuse the caliper mounting bolts they are one time use bolts. Also do yourself a favor and spend the money on factory brake pads and rotors.
It's not hard at all. One thing you want to watch out for is that Porsche is adamant about not reusing the bolts that hold on the caliper, so make sure you order a fresh set.
Here are the maintenance items (other than routine oil changes) I've encountered over that time: horn contact plate back up light switch cabin filter coolant hose O2 sensors engine oil filler neck high pressure power steering hose alternator and drive belt wiper blades wiring harness battery
I don’t know why, but I like them on the 996 but don’t on the 986
I have used the Cardone ones and they kept falling apart. Like the CV center would pop out and all the balls hit the floor. It came apart while driving like this and would do it in tour hands. Avoid.
