Suggestion

I would recommend an extra sticky tyre if you're going to take it on track - they make a BIG difference - worth at least 50-70 BHP.

I can't translate PSI to Bar in my head, and haven't got the calculator here, but I run 2.2 bar front, 3 bar back when driving around on road, and 35psi hot all around when I'm on track.

Never really try hard on the road so no experience with normal tyres, although with the S02's I ran 36/40 and had no issues.

The car is more sensitive to geometry rather than pressures, I run a little toe-out on the front to stabilise it in a straight line, otherwise it's one sneeze and you're in the slow lane.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

I am led to beleive that 32 hot allround is good for a track day but what about normal running around and the occasional spot of fast road?

Suggestion

For road use (driving to and from events) I usually put them up 5psi all round at 33/35 although if it is a long way I would stuff them up to 36/40.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

With P Zero C I start with 28/30 on speed events or 30/32 on a track day, expecting to continually drop them back to this pressure during the course of the day; afterwards cold they will be around 24/26. For road use (driving to and from events) I usually put them up 5psi all round at 33/35 although if it is a long way I would stuff them up to 36/40. Never really try hard on the road so no experience with normal tyres, although with the S02's I ran 36/40 and had no issues. The car is more sensitive to geometry rather than pressures, I run a little toe-out on the front to stabilise it in a straight line, otherwise it's one sneeze and you're in the slow lane.

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Many thanks for the response 9M,,,From what you have written I think i will put a couple of pounds in each to increase my current 32F-36R to see how she feels on the road.....Cheers

POST 3Original post

Clubsport Congrats on the new arrival, and welcome to the world of RS...! I can't translate PSI to Bar in my head, and haven't got the calculator here, but I run 2.2 bar front, 3 bar back when driving around on road, and 35psi hot all around when I'm on track. I see you have SO2's. I had those on my RS, and replaced them with P-Zeros for a bit. However as my car spend most of its time on track it has run the Michelin Pilot Sport Cups, and also P-Zero Corsa track day tyres. I would recommend an extra sticky tyre if you're going to take it on track - they make a BIG difference - worth at least 50-70 BHP. Only problem is they are more expensive, have less tread and wear more quickly = v expensive! Have fun with the new car, Zubin

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

According to the sticker on the door,,,the tyre pressures on a 993 RS are supposed to be 36 front & 44 rear...As this is the same as quoted for most 911 since the 964 came out I would appreciate a little guidance by current owners. Assuming standard 8" & 10" speedlines on S02 with 265 section rear tyres,what are the best pressures to use? I am led to beleive that 32 hot allround is good for a track day but what about normal running around and the occasional spot of fast road? I tried 32F & 36R this seemed fine,,I would be grateful if more experienced owners could pass on reccomendations ...many thanks
