I am curious what you guys are running your tire pressure at on the EL42's. Is says not to exceed 40psi...is this cold? I cant tell if I am getting any cupping and they are wearing evenly, but I am running mine at 31psi. Just curious...thanks.

 

I keep 35PSI in all four tires. The EL42's suck- cant wait to get them replaced.

 

30-32 PSI here also,,, I tend to drive like an even older guy than I am.... I like the softer ride at that PSI.

 

I run 35/32 F/R in the AT, this is the pressure shown in the owners manual for the MT version of the car.

Presures shown are always cold!

 

35

 

The only pressure I recommend for the EL42 is atmospheric. That's what mine are running right now.

My garage is around 45 Fahrenheit, and my EL42s are 39/35, high-speed standard.

Since our weather is usually around 15-35 recently, they should be around 36/32 and 38/34 while parking outside. Anyway, I won't let my tires' cold-pressure stay above 39/35 when temp is going up.

Also, I always believe a little higher front-tire pressure could help to adjust FWD understeer issue, IMHO, I would never have four tires with the same PSI. (not intend to offend against anyone here)
