What's up y'all? I'm back from a 2-week vacation in the Philippines. ****, I'd move there if not for the traffic. I was hoping to get some parts there, but the Lude was never imported there so the H22 never came there. ATR? Forget it. There are only a handful of imported H22s, probably all in stock Preludes.

Anyways, I've set to settle on a good daily driving pressure for any of my tires. For summer I have 225/50-15 Potenza S03s (15x7 K1s) and winter I have 205/55-15 SP Sport 5000s (15x5.5 OE wheels). For the S03s I usually run 36 PSI front and rear. Anyways, post up your tire and pressure info please.

 

Khumo Supra's 195-60-15 34 psi winter
- too much track time and driving in summer to have a constant psi, but genrally around the same thing

 

225-40/16 ecsta 712 on 16X7 @37psi f/r. 225-45/15 ecsta V700 on 15X7 36f 38r

 

215-14's i stay at 38

 

summer dunlop Sp5000s 205 55 15 34psi

winter dunlop graspic ds-1 205 55 15 33psi

Kumho 711 40-205-17
33psi+-1

 

and yeah...i still have my Biatchstore stock tires

 

205/60 15 Dunlop Sport A2's I keep em at 32 PSI cold and they are quiet around turns and good in snow/rain.

P.S. anyone with the 205/60's have rubbing issues in the back?

On what wheel? The stock ones? If it's an aftermarket wheel, the wheel's offset might have something to do with the rubbing.

 

205-50-15 falken azenis 35psi at all 4 corners.

225-50-15 khumo victoracers 40psi on all 4.

205-45-15 nitto 555r drag radials 22psi (only front two)

 

Bridgestone Potenza RE950 could really care less for them, but i got all four for $55 so i'm not complaining.

Anywho they're 195-60-15 and i keep them at 34-36 psi

Next i'm looking at Yokohama AVS ES100 size 205-50-15 anyone hear anything about those?

 

OH yeah duh they are OZ F1 Cup, I bought them from the tire rack but they don't have offset listed?

but what size are they?

 

You're rubbing the inside of the rear wheel well with a 205/60-15?
I dunno anyone running that size on a 4th gen, but I don't think it would rub.
Usually too-wide a tire causes rubbing problems, but in addition to being wider, a 205/60 will have a slightly taller sidewall than a 195/60 (stock 4th gen EX size) and the larger radius might be causing the rubbing. That, or for some reason Tirerack sent you wheels with an abnormally large offset would be my guess.

 

215/45/17 kumho 711

currently running at 36psi

 

Ive got a 4th gen with 17x7's in the front with 215/45/17 kuhmo ecsta supra tires
that i keep at about 40 psi and for "winter"(i live in texas) if i need to, ive got stock sized michelin pilots that are at 35psi

 

Nitto NT-450 205x40x17 50 psi all year round

Florida

 

I'm running 205/60/15 dunlop SP Sport A2 40psi fr/rr but they have only been on hte car about 2 weeks and most of that has been snow and rain, so I'm still looking for a good pressure on them.

no rubbing, but these are on a 6th gen. the oem size is 195/65, so it's not exactly a fair compairison.

dunlop sp sport a2's @ ~38 psi for autox.
for the strip i drop the fronts down to 20 and 40 in the back.


my nittos are 215/45/17's and run ~40 psi all the time.

 

I have Yokohama Parada Spec-2s, 215/40-17. I keep them around 36-38psi. They are mounted on OZ Superleggas, and I just lowered my car with Pro-Kit springs and AGX shocks.

 

205/50-17 kuhmo 712.... 41 psi.. but i dont know why. This looks like a lot of random information but no real technical info.
???'s
is there a formula using load rating and vehicle weight for proper psi?
what psi for what conditions/driving style

 

bridgestone G2 205/55/15 front and rear. front: 32psi, back: 30 psi.
awesome handling
