Inflation..New Tires...NON-Run Flats
I will be installing a set of Continental ExtremeContact DW tires (not run flats) on my 2010 GS-
For normal street driving, what air pressure would you recommend? Factory run flat pressures or something else?
I looked at the Continental website and they say they don't make tires for my car (they do) so I couldn't find any guidance there.
Front P275/35R18
Rear P325/30ZR19
Thanks-

I just found a few other threads regarding this so I'll go with factory (30 psi) & see how it drives.
If you want add your experiences feel free...

30 psi cold, that's what the manual says.

Just checked recommended pressure for the new Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 ZP runflats I purchased from Tire Rack for my '06 Z06. There guideline recommends OEM 30psi cold.

I agree; it's the safe starting point: 30 lbs. cold. You can go up a pound or two, trying it out to see how the car "feels." (I wouldn't go down, but some do to get a little more traction, comfort, etc.)
