Ihave heard mentioned that when running the new pilot powers, you need to run higher tire pressure. I usally run 30 in the front and 32 in the rear. Has anyone else heard this?

I am having them installed today and would love to know the answer.:riding

32 front 30 rear...:beer :beer

Got there for the tire install and the shop ordered the Power Race instad of Pilot Power. will have to wait a few more days.

Wheatman, that tire pressure is alot lower than the factory spec. Dumb question, but how did you arrrive at those pressures?

PS - Your avatars are intense.:sneaky

Pilot Power Race PR ='s 32 front and 22 rear

Pilot Power street/trackday 32 front and 28rear

Alright, I feel a little in the dark here. My owner's manual has 36 front, 42 rear. Do the lower pressures you guys run come from your own experience? :fact

Yep! :yesnod

Start with recommended pressure, then each time before you ride, drop a pound or 2 in each tire and try it. I've found that each brand is a little different. I run 32 front and 30 rear in my 208's. When I ran Diablos on my R6 I was at 30 front 30 rear.

Keep at it until it feels right to you..

Thanks for the feedback 74Bones:thumbup
