Need a quick bit of help please people
I have done a search to find what I should set my tyre pressures to & the only post I found was 35 psi front & 33 psi rear. Do you think this is right for 1 07 Hawkeye ? Would like to adjust them for Rallyday tomorrow
I can always use the book recommendations of course but maybe there are better recommendations
Cheers Andy.

Thanx for the info
I am running standard 17's so 35 33 might be okay then.
I was surprised to find the rears on mine were 27.5

Depends what you are used to, I like mine firm
36/34 would be better but I only found out what I prefered by playing around.

I think you will find you run a lower pressure on track (from cold), as your tyres heat up so much, that the pressure increases itself.
I remember last time at Brands, having to let hot air out of my tyres !!
