Shouldn't have the same tyre pressure all the way round imo.

I have this sticker in my door slam but i would experiment to find pressures that suit you

Cheers will try 34 in the front as it feels a bit jelly like at 32psi.

Have to say am very impressed with the grip of these tyres and there not even fully worn in yet, great in the wet too and there was only £232 for a set of 4.

I've purchased a set for my Type R as it has Wanlis on it and the Wanlis were alright in the dry but fecking terrible i.e very dangerous in the wet

I paid a bit more as i've got 17s but i think they are fecking great (and i've been wearing mine in quite a bit )
