Default RT615 Azenis

Does anybody know the optimum pressures for RT615's at the track?

0 front 0 rear...... ... haha

prolly start off around 33 all around (cold) and then when it warms up just adjust to your liking after every few laps ?

with my experience I'll be wasting a lot of my track-day trying to figure out the safest/optimum pressure for these tires...


anyone...

thanks dennis, i would have thought these needed higher pressures than the RE-050's - which we ran at 38psi on the track

when it was high like 38 it did not grip and the car just slide everywhere this is from my view someone else might do it differently. Ask Tim stinkytofu he runs rt all the time real nice guy i am pretty sure he'll answer some of your questions

The old Azenis also got greasy when they got hot. I would guess that 38 hot is probably about right for the 615s as well.

You are going to have to play with your pressures no matter what. There is a certain temp that a tire works best and then there are track differentials. For instance if you have more left turns than right you will probably need a pound or more pressure in the right side.

thanks, tim is running 36 in the front and 34 in the back (though he's non-staggered) - I will play in the 34-38psi range to find out what works best.
