I run b/w 23-25 on my 255/40/18's. Always nets me solid 2.0's and the occasional 1.9.

I begin the day with 34 PSI. If I am happy with 60 foot times, I leave it alone. If not I will drop 2 PSI with each run.

Stock potenzas have sidewalls that are almost like runflats, you want to run more than 30psi, less than 40psi, I always just leave them be.
