The Michelin AS4 is a pretty good tire for daily driving. I can promise they are not very sticky, but they do feel very stable being stretched out on a 9" wheel. 8" really is the ideal wheel width for that size tire as previously stated.

Summer tires are where it's at on a 911. Having two sets of wheels is awesome, or just leave it in the garage when its cold.

I strongly advise to stay with rubber bushings in the front A-arms and rear spring plates.

I'm with you. I had the RSR bushings and decided to use rubber.
