Just curious. Have heard some different opinions on this recently. BTW, this is for "normal" street driving. I figured this would be the right place to ask since there are more 19's on here than any other board. I've even heard rumors of a few 20's

FWIW, I run 36/41 on my Rosso's with 8.5/11.5 width rims. Did one track day at that pressure as well.

with porsche having so much variance between their 17" and 18" inflation recommendations, why would you use the 18" recommendations on 19"s?

That is what Ruf recommends for the 19" wheels/tires on my car (well, actually they said 2.5/3.0 bar, but that is pretty close to 36/44)

I don't think you need that much pressure in the back (44).

Of course wear is a concern cause those babies aren't cheep but I'm actually getting pretty even wear on PS2s at 38 with 1.5' neg camber (I know some of you run more than that).
