18" wheels PFF7's on F1's. I tend to run higher than what the book says. 36 on front and around 34-35 on the rear. Still gives fast road use but with reduced outside wear. Seems to work for me

I run my STi MY03 PPP with 35 front and 32 Rear - it has prodrive springs and setup, using 18" OZ 10 spokes and F1's, been on the car for 12 months and done 3K miles. Just checked em this week and they have even little wear. Hope this helps

prodrive springs on my 03+ppp

34-32 for me on 17" standard

have used F1's for over 50k miles

i find them twitchy and "soft" for about 2k then they bed in - i get high wear on outside but happy with grip ... soft turn in, but grip well when pushed hard.

just re-set mine to these - pressures had slipped c 4 lbs - thought ride was getting comfortable - notice outer edges on front being eaten alive...
