Default Low-pro tire people... Pressures?

Just curious... I'm running 275/35 18"s in the front and 285/35 R18"s in the back. I've got my pressures set to 26 psi all around..

What is every one else running?

Sounds about right. GM recomends 30psi on both front and rear. I usually run that. Tires wear nice and even all the way across. The center doesnt wear out faster than the rest.

Hmmm.. I've had my GS-D3's on the front since 06 AT 37PSI and the tire wear is pretty even. I've got NT05's out back now and set em to 27 also.

I ran the fronts(hankook V12's 285/35/18 to manufacturer specs, and the rear 305/35/18 M/T ET Street Radials to 25 per reccomendations form others, and will drop them to 15ish at the track if i go.

in my old KDW and not my Nitto NT-05's i run 30 in the front and 30 in the back for normal driving. for corner carving or aggressive driving i drop the rear tires to 25-28. works great!
