Default another question for people with victoracers

tire pressure.
what do you think a qood starting point for me is?

these tires are very sensitive to pressure right, so i would kind of like to shorten the trial and error process of finding the one thats right. what do you guys use. the pressures wouldnt be different between cars that run on full tracks and in autocross right?

No other Accord owners with Victoracers here. Sorry. Morgan used Corey's Victoracers and I'm guessing didn't have much chance to play with pressures, and didn't autox on them. He's usually on 712s. Steve has the A032s. Karl has the Azenis. Me, I've got S-03s.

for autox, or track driving?? Start with 32 in the front, and 34 in the back, then, after your first run, check your tire pressures, you want around 40 hot in the front, the rear doesn't really matter, just give it more air if you want more rotation, thats about it..

Thats what I did with My A032R's and plan on doing with my Victoracers.

look to get 40 hot..


so start them about 35
a little lower in the front.
I usually start with 33 front and 35 rear
and keep track of all the changes.

I drive a Hatch so it may be a bit different for an Accord. But I run around 45-50 in mine. I ran a whole season at 38-42 but someone said something about bumping up the pressure. Big difference. So from now on, 49 front 47 rear.

If "skatey" equals fast, then yes.

It did make the car handle completly different, but it is a good different.
