Default Track wheels tire pressure

The sticker in the compartment thing in the middle says the tires should be 35psi all around. Isn't that a bit much? What are you guys doing for tire pressure on track wheels?

i set mine to about 33 all around. during the day and driving long distances the pressure jumps up to no more than 40, but usually hovers around 37-39 psi.

Default Mine's higher than that

Mine is usually in the low 40's when I'm driving (never higher than 42). I'm in the 100 degree heat out here though so that might be why.

Of course, I *hate* those damn sensors as I've got one broken.

Whe i first picked up my CS Track from the dealer, they set all 4 corners to 38psi and on the 40min drive back on highway, they went as high as 43 psi. Since then ,i have bleed the air out to about 35psi all around and it never gets over 41 with the tired fully warmed up. Anyone noticed any change in MPG with various tire pressure setting?

I like to run 30-32 cold... tho right now they are all out of wack, the right side has like 27 cold, and the left is around 32 cold. kinda odd, the shop that put my new rims on didnt fill em very well.

i have factory rays and the tire pressure sensor seems to be working pretty well. I verified the reading with a $25 tire pressure gague. the differnce is reading is +/- 1 psi.

Right now I have my track wheel/tire combo set at 33 psi cold all around. With the heat out here my psi can jump to 40-41....is this getting to high? I am getting excessive tire squeal while cornering....I think I may try raising the pressure a few pounds. Is that a good idea or no? Thanks.
