Default Tyre pressure
Gents. What tyre pressures - front and rear - would you recommend for everyday road use? As it's a change from OE, I assume Subaru's recommended numbers are no longer applicable, right? Much appreciated.

Personally on my 18s I run between 32 and 34, I usually keep all 4 the same.

I run the rears 1 less just because the rear is lighter. Pressure wise I think it's personal preference try a few different combos and see what you like. I'm on 35f34r at the mo

I'd say it's more down to tyre stiffness, I'd aim for 28-32psi IMO.
