[QUOTE="kieefjr, post: 1089472, member: 8909"] 36psi front/36-42psi rear is factory manual recommendations depending on load for the rear. It's common to run higher psi in the front to alleviate sluggish steering and I have usually ran 39 or 40psi in the front with PR's. So, I'm within range IMO. Running PR's I could really feel a difference, in the front, when my psi was below 40, same with a set of Dunlops, not so with these Avon's. After mounting tires I usually run them at a lower psi for a few hundred miles, I ran these Avon's at 36 front and rear. My thoughts are that they would scuff the slippery stuff off better and quicker. Doesn't hurt, also IMO. Wait a minute, it just dawned on me, I had my forks upgraded by Traxxion, this may be the reason why my new tires feel so good.
