I'd run a square winter set just for this trip. The 275 will fit on the 10.5 - not ideal but it'll work - and figure out a longer term solutiom for A/S when you're closer to replacing the stock summers.

Porsche N0 designation on tires means it Porsche tested and approved. When I sold tires decades ago, I'd recommend to customers not to mix tire since the tread pattern could be slightly different, rubber compound etc.


As long as the sizes match up to what's on your vehicle, you're good. It's one of the reasons why I shy away from 21s on my G05 know what a PITA it is to find tires for it.
