Tire pressure - Opinions

[skyguy]

OK, Forum Nazi, no flames please! I did do a search on tire pressure and did not find the answer I'm looking for.

I bought some Kuhmo MX tires and need a opinion or a link to proper tire pressure.

Driving style is somewhat conserative whith a brief sprint now and then.

No tracking, just street driving.

I experimented with my Bridgestone So3's and found 38/36 psi worked for me.

any info would be helpful.

I would suggest starting at the car manufacturer's recommended pressures (which, for the NSX, means 33 front and 40 rear). Then adjust as needed, based on tire wear (greater treadwear in the center than BOTH edges is a symptom of overinflation, the reverse is a symptom of underinflation - not to be confused with the front tire wearing only the inside edge, which is a symptom of driving an NSX) and/or handling preferences.
