??? to C32 owners - tire pressure
I am wondering what the factory tire pressure is on the C32 front/rear tires. Has anyone increased tire pressure for better handling? and what lbs/inflation did you use?
thanks...
thanks...

I go with the factory settings
I think the front is 32 and the back is 35 or 36. If you live in the north east, then the cold weather will make it tough to run them much harder. You may not get any grip at all if they are too hard in the cold. I had them harder for about 2 weeks and will tell you that they are much more comfy at the recommended levels. I have the Pirelli Rossos so the Mich's may run a bit different. Play around with it till its what you like.

vinman,
thanks for the info...unfortunately, I do not own a c32 yet...but put the wheels on my C240.....17x7.5 up front and 17x8.5 in the rear....I elected to go with the Continental sportcontacts....heard some so-so reports on the Michelin Pilots...but that will help with playing around with the pressures....
