    Ive just bought a set of 2nd hand Michelin Sport Cups off Justin for a track day at Oulton Park this saturday. What pressures do you reccommend in dry coolish temperature (10 oC). Says 30 in the maunual i think but maybe this is a bit high for track use?


    This thread says differently.

    Pardon my ignorance but if I read this correctly then I should run 33-35 psi cold on road conditions then deflate to 26-28 psi cold for track conditions?

      I thought i answered this one already... :whistle:

      The recommended pressures according to the sticker on the door pillar are (iirc) 2.4 bar all round = 35psi
      All manufacturer recommended inflation pressures are based on cold tyres.

      * I run my PS2 road tyres based on 35psi cold

      * I run my track Cup tyres based on 26psi cold (as their pressures generally increase to an optimal 32-33psi when hot)

      Hope this helps clear your confusion! :thumbs:

        those are all relating to track where you get 4-6 psi gain with temperature increases.

          I think I got it. So if I want to run my goodyear F1's on the track I should make sure they run about 32-35 psi hot.... Which means I might have to take some air out.

          On the road I should leave them as 32-35 psi cold as they will never warm up properly...
