kep 3psi different front to rear, with the front having the higher pressure. start with 31 / 28 and increase until you are happy.

keep in mind that perfect in the dry can feel horrid in the wet though

Default tyre pressures

I keep changing my pressures but they are all in the pressure as you lot.
Do you think each car is diffrent depending on suspension etc?
