Tire Pressures

Post by Subaru_Nation555 »

I have WRX wheels with stock size tires (205/55-16). Just wondering what pressures other people with the same tires are running? Mine are at about 36F/33R

I'm running ~3 psi harder in the rear than the front.

Depends on the tire, but I'm running 40/40 with the Kumhos.

I have 34/33 with my 16" RE92s.

I might bump it up a psi or two all around.

FYI - That size tells me these are RS wheels - not WRX. right?

The specs for an RS:
32 front, 29 rear

You've got 12% more weight, so I think you're right on the money already.

'91 Legacy Turbo 5MT - mothballed
