Default What tyre pressures are you running for 205/40/17

So a while ago I opened a thread on my classic Impreza steering feeling light. But both my other Impreza's felt fine.

Most people said about adjusting camber. But I tried dropping my pressures down too 28 all round. Which feels better. But still not right.

So just thought ask on here see what everyone else is running.

Nankang tyres fitted, will be swapped tyres soon. I want to move to 215/45/17 as that's what my other Impreza's are running.
