The superstar flaunts sports tyres measuring 325/30 ZR 19 that had been developed exclusively for the 911 GT2 RS.

Apt longitudinal and crosswise dynamics are ensured by the sporty RS set-up of the springs, PASM Porsche Adaptive Suspension Management, anti-roll bars, as well as the engine mounts and PSM Porsche Stability Management.
