Been so busy lately, but this thread reminded me to check my pressure. Around 25 for all 4!!! The car was feeling a bit twitchy making lane changes and at higher speeds past few days. Went to the station to fill it up and car handles/drives great again

I run around 31 -33 psi all around. Tend to be a little higher in the rears.
Gotta remember all tires lose pressure like 1 to 3 pounds per month - at least.

With the Colder weather approaching (atleast for the northern hemisphere) makes sure you test them regularly.

I went to a gas station at night (8 degrees celsius) and tried to add air, but the stupid valve on the compressor would leak air. When I check it, I had 29-30 on all 4.

The next day (20 degree) I checked my tires mid day and all were at 34.

I didn't expect such a jump in psi, it could be that my tires guage (analog) isn't working right or sticky.

Look at your door jamb. It'll tell you what Honda recommends.

I run 32 psi in the front, and anywhere from 28 to 32 psi in the rear depending on the weather. I have stock 16" wheels and I run BFGoodrich G-Force Sports, 205/55/16 front and 225/50/16 rear

32 all around is best for me. I tried all combo of PSI and 32 is just right.

Same for me. Sometimes I give the rears 34 to make things fun

On the track(Button Willow) on a cool day i ran em at 34 all the way around and it was great! At the end of each session they were at 38. I love these tires for street and track... i wasn't too sure about em at first since i never heard anything about them but was very happy with the result. I used to run RA1's on the track but they get to be a bit costly for the amount of track time that i put on them and they don't last very long.
