i just put my 18" dunlop winter tires on, and im curious what PSI you guys are running.

I'm currently at 35/36 front/rear.

235/40/18 front, 275 35 18 rear on OEM turbo twists.

I'm running Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3 tires on the stock turbo twist wheels. 245/40R18s in the front and 275/35R18s in the rear. Pretty sure I'm at 36F/40R right now. It's a bit tail-happy in corners, so I will be messing with the pressures here in the near future to balance things out. I will let you know what pressures I end up running.

I'm running the same as the summer tire right now - didn't even consider changing anything - I don't hit the fun pedal as much with these tires - way too easy to cut loose with the soft narrow rears. (245 / 275)
