Tire inflation

[DMaula at gordonrees.com (Denny Maula)]

I usually go 4 under the max psi to allow for heat expansion (with
non-oem size tires).

On a factory suggested tire, I'm fine with the psi indicated on the door
jamb or the owners manual.

Keep in mind, it wouldn't be wise to run a 40 seires tire with little
sidewall at 35 psi around town.

Also, running a higher tire pressure effectively raises your spring
rate.

Personally with the way I drive I run the pressure for the tire not the
car. Like on my Z24 I bet hte label says 2?PSI but my tires are rated at
44 so I run ~44. I am a rather aggressive drive like most on the list.
