Nitto NT05 Tire Pressure
 
Does anyone know what the ideal tire pressure would be for the best results for the Nitto NT05 tires, I have 315/35/20 in the back and 275/40/20 in the front. They just don't feel that great need some opinions!

35psi...lucky if you get 10k out of them with no track days...I used mine 4 days at the track and 3k of miles and just about gone...

I would actually take the rear ones down a little further than my buddy Ddunerider gave you, run the back at 33lbs, as you tend to get a lot of wear on that center stripe if you don't. The tires are definitely a little rougher ride than P Zero's but will grip like crazy when they get a little warm.

I run mine at 33PSI.

I guess I also baby mine, I'm at 5k (and Bakersfield autox, drag, and start/stop) and still more than 3/4 tread left... I am honestly expecting to get close to 20k out of mine.

I also know that ddunerider is hard on tires! But he also knows what hes talking about if your seriously tracking your car!

I would say 33-35 PSI for the rear and 37-38 PSI for the front to carry the Engine weight.

That's how I have mine done
