... or rather, it feels like it now the new S03s have been fitted.

One problem though - the tyre bloke inflated them to 30 psi, which I think may explain the exceedingly light steering. I can turn the wheel with three fingers!

The bible mentions 22 (front) and 24 (rear) psi but in my V8S tyres thread, GreenV8S - sorry, don't know your name - mentioned that newer Bridgestone prefer a couple of psi less than the RE71s.

So is everyone with S03s running 20 and 22 psi?


Cheers!

I run 22 on the front, but still have S02's on the rear. If Green V8s says 20 and 22 are correct he is probably right. Don't run them at 30 psi, unless you want to lark around on a skid pan.
