My 56 plate 11k 2.5 STi drives like it's on ice in the wet, zero grip. Car is std, tyres are re70's at 28psi. Front & rear toe in/out is zero as this is the only setting data I can find. I recently followed an almost identical car around Donninton and whilst I was working hard to try to stop the car swapping ends the car in front was coasting. Dealers are useless and i can't start swapping springs etc due to warranty issues. Any help would be appreciated.

 

28psi seems a bit low?

 

When i bought my Hawkeye and asked about tyre pressures i was told 35 psi front and 33 rears.

Now i have 18's on and have them at 36f 34r,seem much more sure footed when pressure increased on both sizes.

 

ive just changed my re70's for a better all round wet/dry tyre couldn,t keep it on the road in wet or ice.i suggest channging them its cheaper than a new panel or two.book pressures for sti hawkeye ie 33 psi front 28 psi rear. good luck

 

Vredesteins in the wet, WOW ! 35-37PSi all round, like driving in the dry.

 

Change tyres to Toyo T1r or goodyear eagles and laugh at the rain
