C63 Black Series Tire Pressure
Hi all, I just picked up a used C63BS and the sticker indicating the tire pressures are nowhere to be found anywhere in the car, including the gas filler cap.
Can someone be so kind to take a picture of the sheet or let me know the pressures for low load (i.e. just me in the car). Thanks!

prodigue,
the Exra Load comment means that the C63 needs XL rated tires, that is all. The tire pressure recommendation is very high given the low cross section of the tires. It is needed to be safe in case of poor roads, potholes etc. Many drivers run the pressure somewhat lower than recommended, e.g. 40 PSI.

I run 40 all around for street driving.
In depends what you want to do with it?
Going to the track you might want to adjust a bit.
Otherwise well done on the BS
Post pics if you get a chance.

I don't have a BS, and my comment below is a bit non-responsive to the topic, but I have been running 37 front and 40 rear, which I find makes the turn in very good, makes the cabin quieter than the higher factory pressures (that almost make the dash buzz), and makes the front and rear tires wear almost evenly so you can replace all four at one.
