Tyre Pressure with 17 inch Alloys and Nitrons
Discussion
It is so much down to personal preference, how the car is set up and how you use it. However I have the car set fairly stiff all round to control body roll but set the rear softer both in damping and pressure terms to assist rear end grip, this seems to keep the front rear grip balance fairly well matched with 225 fronts and 245 rears. In addition advice suggested that after a run pressures should ideally rise by about 1.5 to 2 lb. which is what I get. Running the rears harder doesn’t seem to get them working as well in my experience. These settings are to get the best handling and grip when hillclimbing. With the standard 15/16 inch wheels and 205/245 AO32r rubber on I go for 11 clicks from hard all round and 23lb all round. But I never really challenge the handling or available grip on the road.
