Default Tyre pressure question

Hi,
I bought my Silverstone SK2 year 2000 in August and because it is not my daily car,(a Saab Aero 9-5) my engineer who is always busily chasing the clock has only just got around to do a thorough check and service on it for me; I am pleased to say flying colours all round, she's a gem. However, he has said the wheels are not original as they are 17” and he feels the original ones were 16”. They are however Honda wheels I am glad to say as I really wanted an unmodified car. The question is, he would like to know what you would advise for pressures. The rears are 245/40/17 and the fronts Bridgestone 215/45/17
Many thanks in advance,
Harpsi

17s were fitted to MY04+ cars, as shown in the FAQ, as are tyre pressures.

Yes, I realise you have an MY00, and was confirming that your wheels are from an MY04+ as they are 17s.

The FAQ is here: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/301...nical-faq-v21/
