thx doc for your super initiative. very happy for all the 177hp guys. what a big difference it will be!
different topic altogether, to talk about wheels - i'm still running on stock potenza runflats. dropped the pressure to 30psi front, 34 psi rears for the last 2 months to try out, and it actually gave a very comfortable ride. softer, and less harsh on the tush. handling became a little squishy, but not too bad a compromise for a much gentler ride. did it on purpose for a family trip outstation.
this evening, i increased it back to 32/38 and it's back to a more feedback from the roads. after going softer for a while, it's actually quite nice getting back to riding on rails again - the msport suspension is a real big joy generator for me, i love it. rolling resistance feels less too.
would love to hear any other thoughts/feedback on tire pressures. fyi, the 17" recommended pressures on the side of the car is 230/280 kPas (33/40 psi) for a max load of 4 adults, in case anyone was wondering.
