Ordered a set of Ecsta V700's the other day and have a couple questions. Does anyone have experience with these? If so, what pressures did you have success with? I've heard that older V700's were very air pressure sensitive and am wondering if the new model is the same.

I ordered them from Tire Rack and my fronts, 205/50-15's, are backordered until mid-April. Must be a spec tire size. . .maybe for Miatas.

Thanks for your help.

 

If you ran on the old Victoracers, try about 10psi over what you ran in them.

 

I just started running these this past weekend, so take what I say with a grain of salt. I'm not an expert on them yet. Around 40 psi worked in the front for my WRX. The rear is WRX-weird, so I'm not even going to mention that. A BMW 325is was running high 30s/low 40s. He felt this was the way to go for his car.

205/50/15 is indeed a very popular Miata size

The 00 build-date Victoracers liked about 6psi more than the '99 ones to work effectively. At least, that is what I was told by a very fast Miata driver at that time.

EDIT: this is for autox use!
