    Default Martin, or NE1 else running t-stars on a 535 (m)

    What tire pressure are you running on your setup? My tires are 235/45 on all four corners.
    Thanks,
    patrick

    30 psi on the street.
    This is with Yokohama Db's. The es100 did seem to handle potholes better at 30 psi. Anything higher reminds me of the RD swaybars, bilstein sports & BavAuto springs.

    The roads suck here. The city is constantly tearing up the asphalt & leaving huge splits & grooves everywhere, bastartds. For some reason, bellevue doesn't use concrete, just crap asphalt.

    I'm running Sumi HRT+ in a 235/45-R17 (well, right now I'm running studded Hakka Q's to be exact) at approx 35 psi, based upon the feedback I rec'd from this board. Had been running them at around 31/32 and found these tires' sidewalls a little too flimsy at that pressure.

    Default i run 35 psi all round too 235/45/17 and 255/40/17

    I assume then that the sale has gone through and you are the proud owner of a set of t stars(bastard)
