Default 195/60/14 Azenis - what tire pressure for autoX/street? (searched)

After searching, I've only found recommended pressures for 205/50/15 tires. Nothing for 14's. This is on steelies.

Thanks

I was always under the impression that a higher rear tire pressure allows the rear of the car to rotate better. On 205-50-15 Azenis, 34 front and 38 rear works good for me.

lol... funniest thing I've read in a while. Obviously you don't know that tire pressure affects the handling of a car.

Mine say 51 PSI on the sidewall. 15's though.

I just ran 38 front and 43 rear this weekend at the autoX. Ran pretty well too.
If I run less then 35 in front, they start folding over too much.

After I am done running, I air down the fronts to 33 and the rears to 31

haha, give me a break cruz, everybody has different setups on what pressure works for them. the pressure i have my 205/50/15 azenis at is 40 in the front, and 37 in the back. and thats what feels good for me. there isn't like 1 master set of pressures that will own everything... just start at the "max" pressure listed on the sidewall, and experiment from there. thats how i did it, in an empty farmers insurance parking lot one sunday.

It's all gravy at the end of the day no matter what our posts sound like. It's only a message board, not an application for social acceptance. (what the **** did I just say) Anyway...reading the sidewall and starting from there is probably the best advise actually. I'll try the parking lot deal. And perhaps some shoe polish too.
