tire pressure


What are you guys running for tire pressure on your pony rims? I've got 225/50 or 55's on, dont really wanna go outside and look. But what are you guys running? I had 32 on the fronts because I think the guy that did my alignment dropped the pressure from 35 to that. It was good but I didnt know and I did a rotation yesterday and my car is all over the place. I checked tire pressure and my rears which are now my fronts were still at 35 but the fronts which are now the rears were at 32. I filled the rears up to 35 last night and it still sucks. SHould I try them all at 32?

Depends on the tires, I usually use 30-35 on everything and adjust if needed based on how they wear. A few pounds either way is not going to make your car squirrelly. Check your inner and outer tie rods.

Check for improper wear on your old fronts too.

Did you tighten the lug nuts when you rotated the tires

I've got Hancook Ventus Hr2's. I put them all just under 33 psi tonight. I'm sure I need a new rack/tie rods. Its always been squirrely but I tyhink it might just be the new tires grabbing more and the fact that they are directional. Thanks though guys. I'm gonna pick up a new rack soon. Oh and yes I made sure the lug nuts were tight lol
