D Hill 555, If they are Pirelli's I've got an original Prodrive Pressure label for the P1 with 18" wheels, Recommended pressures are:

For 225/35/18
F: 38 Psi
R: 35 Psi

However I tried those pressures and found the ride was hideous so I am running 35 psi All round.

(MY99 STI-V with 18" P1 Wheels)

you sure you dont mean 225, i would of thought 235 would be too big

on my 215/35/18 i run 31/32 on the rears and 33/34 on the front if that helps

I have 215/40/18's and run 32f30r..... It think this is toooo hard myself. Although grip is very good (falkens), they do skip a bit in the wet under full power and hard braking. I may be expecting too much maybe ?!?!?

u need to stick to the quoted figures from prodrive.when they replaced the 225/35/18s on warranty about 8mths ago due to reported problems with sidewall splits on the inside the dealer told me it was linked to people running lower pressures..best to check with dealer/prodrive..better still when they wear out use 215/35/18 just as much grip and cheaper and more choice due clearance probs..i now use 215/35/18 p7000
