tyre pressures

[andyek9]

hi guys can anyone tell me what the recommended tyre pressure for the front and rear on the ek9, ive been putting 32psi in the back and 30psi in the front. cheers

33psi front and back for normal driving, lowering the front will help reduce understeer.

32 IS GOOD

32 front and 30 rear works well imo

For track i change it all together

28 front and 30 rear

After 5 hours using Google to guess what the manual said LOL

The ek9 manual states:

240 kPa for the front = 35 psi
230 kPa for the rear = 33 psi

This is for 195/55/R15 Tyres.

Spare tire (the little one): 420 kPa = 60 psi

rvm that seems like extremely high pressure for the spare? Is that maybe the maximum pressure?

60 is the correct psi. it says it on my jdm space saver wheel.
those other tyre pressures are the same as ITR too
I tend to lower them a few psi in winter

The spare's are like wimpy donuts, they need high pressure to hold themselves up.

Tire pressures are something that should be measured and adjusted often when driving at the track, it's a real track temp and layout dependent thing for optimum performance. They can be adjusted front to rear to help overcome oversteer or understeer issues.
