Advan A046 Tire Pressure for Track
Tried searching without much luck.

What pressures do you guys run your Advan A046s (Evo IX) on the track?

Used to run my old tires on a different car at 42 hot F and 41 hot R.

Thanks

totally depends on how you would like the car to perform i.e. do you prefer oversteer? mild or moderate?

Wow, I'd disagree with running that high.

Mainly watch your wear indicators. While I check my pressures a lot, I rarely change them. 30psi cold can easily turn into 35-38psi while hot.

I ran 35 front, 33 rear at autobahn last year. It worked well, but I think I could back it down a pound or two...

That is what I thought. Someone suggested it to me, but I didn't think it sounded right.

+1 This is pretty close to what I've found to work nicely - 40-42F and 44R. A bit closer to 40F seemed to aid a bit in getting the car to rotate, 44R has worked nicely.
