Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What's different about the 2009-2016 Panamera compared with other generations?
This is the 2009-2016 generation of the Porsche Panamera. Earlier and later generations use different platforms, wheel sizes and tyre fitments, so always match your specific year to the correct generation page.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Porsche Panamera?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
What speed rating is required for the 2009-2016 Porsche Panamera?
Performance variants of the Porsche Panamera typically require a Y-rated (300 km/h) or W-rated (270 km/h) tyre. Match or exceed the original speed rating shown on your sidewall — fitting a lower-rated tyre can affect handling and may be illegal on certain models.
What wet grip should I look for on the Porsche Panamera?
For UK driving conditions, prioritise an EU tyre label wet-grip rating of A or B. Wet grip directly affects braking distance — the gap between A and E ratings can be more than a car length at 50 mph.

Typical UK tread life on the Porsche Panamera is around 20,000-40,000 miles depending on tyre brand, road conditions and driving style. Heavier performance variants tend to wear faster.
