I've been running 35F 33R on the street and 42F 45 or so R for autocrossing, which seems to be working well.

Maybe fopr drag racing that is true..but having higher tire pressure usually is a good thing...of course not too high.

I was running 37f/35r for my last auto-x, but I found that I was scrubbing the edges quite a bit, so for my next auto-x I'm going to up the pressure to maybe around 42 or so.

i'll be the first to refer you to the search as i've asked this exact same question before.... seems like around factory specs are good for the street, higher in the front and lower in the back but then again the amount of suspension work you've done will determine your best settings, if you have easy access to an aircompressor try keeping a long and use the various pressures you try as an excuse to drive. Although you didn't ask about auto-x i've researched this topic as i dabble in auto-x w/ my azenis and i've found that LOWER pressure in the back, 29-30, works great with no scrubing thanks to the super stiff sidewalls and allows, for itrs atleast, good rotation and a larger contact patch. Although most everyone swears that if you auto-x you must run higher psi i've yet to hear of anyone trying a lower pressure in the back on the azenis and not being happy. For those reccomending the higher psi in the back for auto-x on azenis i'd be interested to see if you'd like to try out the lower psi at your next auto-x and come back and share your opinions with us. -rob
