DreamZproject Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 Hey guys, ujst dicovered the most RAD mod out there! It not only gives you better handling, but a better ride, lighter steering, better braking, faster acceleration, better fuel economy and much much more! I am of course talking about your tire pressure, perhaps it's common knowledge for some of the older guys, but only recently have i found out how amazing having enough tire pressure really is! on my MR2 one of my tires was down to 12psi, no idea how that happened, but now i think about it, it was over 6 months ago i filled them up! Whacked the fronts up to 40psi, and the rear to 36 (it can be a little harsh with too much as all the weight is there). It completely feels like a brand new car. People seriously pay $1000's of bucks to get this sort of improvement all around, and this is FREE!!! Seriously guys, check your tire pressure is nice and high, it's truly amazing what a difference it makes! Quote
dat2kman Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 Whack on a set of proper semi slicks, no not the ones 99% of tyre shops tell you they are "semis" Run those at pressures that allow the sidewall to flex, keeping tread fully on road surface. See what its like then! Quote
DreamZproject Posted April 19, 2014 Author Posted April 19, 2014 I can only imagine what that would be like! I'm currently running the $99.95 special tires on my car because that's all i could afford at the time... Even on those crappy the amount of lateral G's i was pulling around sandown today was amazing (ah that's another post ), semi's would be nuts!!! Quote
NZeder Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 Taking of tyres and pressures you guys in oz that run in category/groups SC what size tyres are you permitted to run? What pressures those running Toyo R888 are you using? Quote
