    Let talk tire pressures! 215/40-17.

    I tend to run them high [38/36 f/r with my current 195/50-15's] which works well with the H&R Sports and Bilstein sports. Anyone have a simmilar set up and would like to share tire pressures?
    I'm runnning about 37 all around on my Toyo R1s 215/40/17...but simply because I don't really know what else to run. They had 45psi in them after the tires were first mounted...I forgot to let some air out before I drove the car at first. That was scary! Once I put them down to 36-37 the car handled like it should. I have Bilstein sports and H&R sports (coupe) on my Vert.

    Uh, thats not the idea. The MAX pressure is NEVER the correct pressure. A lot of the adjustments in understeer/oversteer and be adjusted with tire pressure. As well as over inflation and under inflation are both bad for the tire and the drivetrain, not to mention ride quality.

    EDIT: Not ment to sound like a dick, kinda came off that way. But thats not the info im looking for, just want a starting point for pressures from people witht he same car.

    Whatever the tire recomends? Unless you go offroading I doubt youll need to be that much under the recomended maximum.
