DE and auto cross event tire pressure
Is the standard 35 psi for the 19" Bridgestones good for driver education and autocross events? Recommendations please....
|
I use pressures somewhere in that range hot. The important thing to remember is that as you drive the pressures are going to increase dramatically and you will need to monitor them to make sure they don't go too high. Also during autox watch your tires to see if you're getting too much roll-over, aka rubbing on the sidewalls. If that starts to happen up the pressures.

Thanks....:tiphat:

I run more pressure in the front for Auto-X because of the beating the front tires take from insufficient camber. Somewhere between 38-40 hot usually works out well for the front and 35 for the rear.

Out of curiosity what kind of surface are the people running on that feel it necessary to up the pressures into the 40 range?

I was running on a highly abrasive out of service aircraft runway with various ages and conditions of asphalt. At 38 psi the front were rolling over still. The rears looked fine (but were probably low when when I showed up). THe car is bone stock and the alignment was as it was when it left the dealers lot.
