I wondered if they should be softer given the car is much lighter
are those figs from the handbook?

Half load 24 all round
Full Load 26 Front, 31 rear
In reality though who changes the tyre pressure depending on the load, might offend some passengers :wink:
Cheers,
Jon

tried them at 26 psi all round and was a lot better could actually feel what was going on and had some grip
may try 24 to see how that feels
at higher pressures 28/29 it was like driving on ice and felt overinflated
hotstart seems to have returned so havent had it out since grrr :cry: but thats another story
