to all those running 195/65-15, I think you're giving away miles on your odometer. I clocked mine at 5mph faster than GPS actual.
Zach, I'm all in on the Vred's. I wouldn't worry too much about the temperature restriction unless you're actually in freezing conditions. My Michelin supersport tires have the same caution, but I routinely drive the 911 on crisp winter mornings. They never come fully up to temp, but they do generate grip after a few miles of driving. |

The rolling radius of the 195/65-15 tires is 25”, vs 25.1 for the 165 size. The speedometers have always been optimistic, but the odometer should still be quite accurate. |
