Goodyear Eagle VR tires were introduced as original equipment (OE) in 16-inch sizes with Model Year 1988. The OE tires, designated with "NO" (N zero) cast in the sidewall are of a different construction than other European or U.S. produced Goodyear tires.

Caution:

- Goodyear Eagle VR tires without the "NO" designation are not approved for use on Porsches.

- Mixing of non-"NO" tires with "NO" tires on a vehicle is not approved.

Replacement Goodyear "NO" tires can currently be obtained through the Goodyear distributor network in the U.S. When requesting tires, make it absolutely clear that you require Porsche original equipment "NO" tires.
