Proper Tire Inflation?
My car was built with performance RFT's, but I had non-RFT performance A/S mounted before delivery. The car now seems confused, it can't tell what tires are installed. The sticker in the door jamb says 38psi all around, I asked Tire Rack and they say to use factory inflation specs since the tires are the same size. IF I set the car to Winter/AS it wants to see pressures at 42/46 which seems way too high. When I set it to Manual it'll show me the pressure but no recommended PSI.
Nutshell, should I leave it set to manual and follow the posted recommendation of 38psi? Or go with the higher psi and set the car to Winter/AS tires (I realize it doesn't affect anything other than this setting)?

I imagine there is a similar section in the G20 manual as well. |

I replaced the HP summers that came on my car with the same size UHP AS's. I run the recommended 38 and it's perfect. 42/46 is way too high. |
