Default Air Pressure for 18 inch tires
Hi,

I have just taken the plunge and ordered a set of 18" by 10" rims for my 2000 Camaro SS. Can anyone suggest the proper tire pressure for a set of 275/35/ZR18 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 for regular road driving use (70 mph..UK speed limit to 80 mph)?

Thanks,
UKCamaroSS

I normally run mine cold at 4-5psi lower than the max listed on the tire....but I like a nice solid ride and good steering response.
