Default Tire Pressure Question for Jim or???
I just put some CE28 in 17" on my S, with 225/45-17 Fronts and 255/40 -17 backs. What tire pressure should I be running?

Thanks in advance

Bill

I'd start with 32 psi cold all around, and experiment from there. Maybe 33 rear, 35 front if you want to bias a little more front grip.

What tires do you have, by the way?

Thanks for the response. S-03's rainy season approaching here in Nor Cal. The little rain we had here I drove my Si, it is now having a motor built, so I needed rain compatible.

The tire mfg's always recommend the same air pressure as OE. The tires still have to support the weight of the car and that has not changed.
