what kind of tires? I run the same size in Falken Azenis and usually have around 35 front 32 rear (hot pressures). However, those are wet pressures as all our events thus far have been in the rain. Even these aren't ideal either.

My suggestion is take an air tank with you, start at about 35 all around and work it out at a practice event. I also drive to events on my Azenis so I can get a decent hot pressure right off.

yeah, i was thinking of starting at 36 and working down. i've been running around town at 33.5 around and its been pretty balanced. i've never ran a 50 series before though so i'm trying to get an idea. thanks for the info.
