They look pretty good. Consistency is key, unless they're like 10 12 11 14 across the board. Then you're fooked.

They are a bit low though. Did you do the test at WOT? I had numbers like that in my Y8 when I didn't, and then retested and got 205 across the board.

They're a little low. It's supposed to be 184 psi.
The minimum is 135 psi, and the max variation is 28 psi
All per the factory service manual

I thought the numbers could vary depending on the kind of tester used?
At least that's what I've heard. I remember hearing about people that used one tester, got 150-ish across the board, then used a different one and got 190-ish across the board.

No, consistency is NOT the key. Maintaining all within a certain tolerance is the key. Jesus people, get off the consistency crap, please.
