What pressure do you run your tires at?.I had a flat the other day
and the local garage plugged it with a rubber pellet and sent me on my way. I thought the tire looked over inflated so checked it a couple days later, it was at 65 psi !! I normally pressure at 35psi for 17" rims. toyota's psi standard is for a 14" rim, so do you ideally alter it as the rim gets bigger? |

I think the fronts should be higher than the backs because of the weight difference between the nose and the rear. That is only if your super picky about that kind of stuff. On the track I'll probably set my tires (on 17x7) to about 44 PSI only because you want that sidewall stiffness and also the roads on the track are super smooth. On the street I have it on about 36.
