Not Happy At All With Continental Sc 3
HELLLO FELLAS
After 4600kms I have to admit that I ain't happy with my tire choice. Is it because of the 20" or can it be something else ? Can hardly imagine it could be something else.
I tried different tire pressures F 3.1 bar R 3.5 bar - dunno how much that is in psi, now I went down each 0.3 bar and still no happy. I may have to go lower again with the pressure, well I found it now... I was going with F 45 psi and R 50 psi - that is the OFFICIAL CONTINENTAL RECOMMENDATION FOR THE 997TT !!!!
what do you think about that ?

I would try much lower pressures like 38front and 45 rear. With your super short sidewalls you need some pressure to keep from pinching a flat if you hit a pothole, but 50 psi will be too stiff to get any good traction. Engaged yet?
