CSR 260, CR500's, road tyre pressures, cold.

Caterham Sales verbally noted -

23 psi front, 24 psi rear. As so, I find the car

handling to be disturbing, it literally bounces all

over a road and the difficulty increases so w.r.t.

speed - gain .

A local Csterham gathering (non of them CSR's) stated

as low as 16 psi.

Any confirmation / & tried recommendation, welcomed.

Thank you for the man'f background Dom, but, as such(24F/23B), I found the car literally bounced over the road and that was apparently moreso at speed.

Hence, I queried a local gathering (none, with CSR's),
to be informed of variations as low as 16psi., That
information was wildly disconcerting. So I tried 20F &
18 rear, without improvement.

I will now revert back to what you noted / and reappraise, and see how I fare going down to Lisbon,
1 week today. I gather Iberian temperatures will increase the tyres pressures significantly and if time
permits, enroute, I will check and adjust.
