Tire pressures for 205/60HR/15 ??

[Type911]

What are people with these size tires running for air pressure
front & rear ?

I thought my Dunlops were a bit soft in the sidewall until I checked
the pressure & found only 23 psi front/rear

I did a search, no answer...sorry if this has been covered
already 1000 times !

thanks

I have always heard that you are suppose to run your tire air pressure based on the particular cars requirements, not the particular tire. I think that would be 26 front and 29 back for early S

Are you autocrossing? Or just going to the grocery store?

just looking for around town/hwy spirited driving pressure rec.

You could always look at the little foil sticker on the car that tells you what the factory wants you to run.

For street driving on my 205/60-15" Michelins, I use 29F and 31R cold pressures on a 2370 lb. car. For "spirited" driving, I would bump that up a couple of pounds.

For R-compound tires, it's a whole 'nuther ballgame.

YMMV,

When I had my old 205/60-15's (Toyo Proxes H4 M&S - aka flintstone mobile tires) I ran 29 F/32 rear. Ride comfort seemed ok and tire wear was normal. At AutoX, I raised the pressures by 5 psi to stop the side wall from rolling over.
