    Default 6MPS tyre pressures

    Does anyone use 225/45/18 tyres on the 6MPS. What tyre pressures are best as I'm sure they will be different to OEM 215/45/18.

    I used to run 225/45/18 and ran 38 psi all round, but found it ran better with 2psi more in the front, either f40/r38 for highway driving or f38/r36 around town, bumpy roads! Hope that helps you out, though experiment a little to see what gives you the best handling/comfort feel. Also monitor tyre wear to see what works best!

    Thanks, What you are saying makes perfect sense especially the trial and error suggestion and checking tyre wear.

    Thanks for your comments. Tried out 38(F)36(R). Brilliant, the car is now well balanced but I will keep an eye on tyre wear. I used to have Toyo T1R's but now have Vredestein Ultra Sessantas (made in Holland), much better and same price in UK.
