Re: Tyre pressures

["Dan Bubb" <jdbubb@ix.netcom.com>]

I must really be missing the boat. I've run 28 front/rear on all my
Sciroccos since 76 for street use irrespective of tire size. Gives good wear
across the tread and balanced handling. If I were to autocross again I'd
start at 36 front and 32 rear. Any higher makes the car too easy to slide
considering my green skills. In my prime the max front I ran was 42, but I
was hot (skills up to date) and the tire was a not low-profile 175/70 x 13.
