track tire pressure
I just got a set of Michelin PS2's for my 335i coupe & was wondering what's the best tire pressure for these on track?
Front 18" - 225/40 Rear 18" - 255/35 Door panel says to keep these pressures for the tires: Front 32 PSI Rear 35 PSI The other door label says to keep these pressures if going over 100mph: Front 38 PSI Rear 42 PSI Also, someone said if the tires make a screeching sound a lot on track, then that means they're under-inflated. Is that correct or is it if they're over-inflated, they screech? I forget. The PS2's stick like glue on track. oh yah, I like! Thanks

When my r compounds died...I put back on my Goodyear F1-D3s...and set them at 38 PSI cold...they worked ok..I just didnt want to wear off the outside edges...not worth it.

All around with the same PSI, even though it's staggered? I did not know that.

I ran 38 all the way around with ok success. but i dont have staggered setup for the track. PS2s as well. A little outer tire wear but stock suspension. Gonna try and put more negative camber up front for my next day.
