Suggested tire pressure for a sportcoupe.
Hello,
For a 2002 Sportcoupe C230 with 220 Hp with tire presure do you suggest me for the folowing tires:
Front 225/40 R18 Michelin Pilot Sport 2 92Y XL
Rear 255/35 R18 Michelin Pilot Sport 2 94y XL
Mercedes Sticker says:
Front 2.1 to 2.3 Bar (30 to 33 psi)
Rear 2.3 to 2.9 Bar (33 to 42 psi).
I usualy drive alone or with one passenger and no lugage.
Should I continue with MB pressures?
Best Regards.

I'd say 34f and 32r, the rationale being that higher in front gives better turn-in and lower in rear gives better traction.
