Hrmm?? I dont have real low profiles, 205-50-15s.. I got the kuhmo 711's, and they filled them to 44 psi from the tire shop.. I thought you inflate to tire pressure on tire when cold? Maybe im wrong..!! Ima go read, see if I can figure this out..

*Edit*
oops.gif Dont I feel dumb.. When I got my new tires, they said they are inflated to 44 PSI and thats whats recommended ;/.. I read the tire and it says, like you said, max 44 psi.. Ahh well, live and learn.. Thx for info!! Ill probably drop mine to 38 psi, as I like the higher inflation.. Get more feel for the road laugh.gif

I've always kept my tire pressure around 35psi. Anything below that and the car feels slugish. Kind of like it's not rolling well.

I might be wrong, but I also think that for low profile tires it's best to keep 35psi.That way when you hit a pot-hole,you have more air to help protect the rim.

Default Exhaust

Tires should be inflated at about 10-15PSI under max pressure and a minimum of 30PSI for road use . Adjust pressure when tires have been at rest a long time(so they are not warm). As you drive, tires heat up and so does the air inside. Warmer air will raise the pressure. If you inflate your tires at 44PSI, if the tires get 4-5 more PSI, guess what could happen wink.gif

As for camber....having 1.5-2.0deg of camber won't wear the tire unevenly IF it's done by someone who knows what he is doing. Of course, you need to rotate tires every 10-15000km but you should do it anyways.
