It depends on many factors, even with the starndard wheels and tyres.

I have had my AW11 for 15 years with varoiuse wheel tyre combos both on and off the race track.

on standard wheels 14x6 with the Bridgestone RE88 i used to run 33 front and 38 rear for around the street, raise them a few PSI if you are doing a longer trip or on the track.

Different tyres ride, handle and wear differently, not to mention driving styles !! so i reckon just experiment.

Note the factory setting are very conservative as is the wheel alignment settings !!

I am running way more negative camber than the factory specs and running toe out not toe in on the front.

good luck and have fun.

I have a tire placard for my 89sc that just arrived from the US. I will check it out when I get home and post the details. The specified pressures are suprisingly low (something like 24 at the front and 29 at the rear - but dont quote me on that, Ill check for sure and post tomorrow some time).
