37 is way too high IMO for that tire.
Should be around 30-35 psi depending on your setup and the track conditions.

Doesn't sound like he's asking for suggestions for dragging the car.

I have tracked these twice and cold i had them at 35 psi all around. The side walls are definitely softer but i have nothing negative to report about them.

edit: i too experienced some tail happiness!

Post suspension setup:

^^^ Hot...although it would be interesting to see what the tires do over an "extended" session. So far I've only seen temps of 160 after a 35 min session.

At the AutoX this last Sunday on my 615s. I started at 38psi, it too seemed a little to "tail happy" and kinda squishy. So I upped to 50psi all the way round and it felt MUCH better. I kept it there and my times improved by 2secs. Although I don't like them much higher than 40psi on the street.
BTW; MAX PSI is 50 according to the sidewall.
