Advan pressures

[ferrisbueller]

What pressure do people run their Advan Neova LTS at, particularly in the wet? My car feels a little skittish and I'm sure it's down to pressures.

The manual suggests 23 front, 27 rear if I remember correct. I always found that they were better 1psi lower all round (22/26). Try that and see how you get along.

I have found they are very sensitive tyres. Pressure and geo affect them in a big way. Because they have a lot of contact with the road they do tramline a little. Overalll the grip is far better than the brigstones.

Doesn't he mean the neova's - ie for the S1, rather than the AD 07's (S2). The pressures will be different.

Good point shang - the pic on profile is of an S2 Exige. In which case, I'm not sure the above applies. Those fig's from me are for an S1.

And remember to check the tire pressure because the weather is a bit better now and temperatures are rising...and so will the cold compressed air in the tires! so when it was cold and the pressure you used is lets say 2.1, it can be to hard now because of a warmer temperature...I have it with my cartires, I like them a bit on the hard side but now when temps getting warmer also the tire was getting harder! so to much feeling? but also more seeking in roadlines...and a bit more uncomfy?

Apologies, I have an S1 111S.

Just set the pressure to 24 front and 26 rear and it seems better. I'll experiment more in the summer.

That'll be better. You may find it a little understeery at 24 (depending on the geo I suppose), mine was always best at the above. I'll be going back to Advans next month (once I've finally killed off the Toyo's at North Weald in 2 weeks) and I can't wait
