Does it feel squishy?

 

I can't believe not one person said anything about when you get the pressure. For street use check the tires cold and set to specs from the manufacturer. For track or autocross you want to check you temps when the tires are hot. I like to go with 42 front 44 rear hot, this seams to help the car rotate a bit easier. Cold this is about 36 front 34 rear to start. Again this depends on the tire you are using.

 

33 front and 32 rear most of the time

 

okay i started this thread so i'll name my exact specs:

40 all round, on non-name brand tires 235/45/17

Suspension:
Tein S.Tech

Driver Style:
Daily Driver, occasional street drag race

so what do u guys think?

 

bump!

 

I run 33 all the way around and I get great traction with the factory size tires.

Shot o boost,

You also have to figure the tire temp when you check them, if it's 40* out and you fill them to 40 psi they'll be at 46 when it's 100* and that's not figuring for temp increase caused by running them down the road. You can count on at least 4 PSI for that. In other words if you fill a tire on a cold AM to 40 psi get on the highway you could very well end up at 50 PSI just driving normally.

 

Id recommend 32 psi at cold temperature. or when car hasnt been drivin for a night. pRetty much its all preference though!

 

+1. I run mine 32 front and 36 rear. This is cold. I like the way the car feels and rotates having a stiffer rear to help with the cars understeer. Like a few others said though, it depends on your tires the temp outside and how you drive. The factory is oposite to make the car stick in the rear. Believe it or not there are many people who own an EVO and can not drive it, lol.

 

Isn't 40 psi the maximum recommended by most tire manufacturers? Anyhow, I haven't really narrowed it down to where I like it the most, but I run 35 in the summer at all corners, and 32 in the winter.
