Track Pressures for Yokohama A032

All, I was wondering what pressures folks are running on there A032's at the track. I'm looking for hot pressures and track temps.

CHeers, James

Talk about timely! I'm going out on the track with my A032R's next week for the first time.

What, if any, adjustment should one use for larger tires?

I'm running 315/35-17 and 245/45-16. In "track trim," my car weighs just a little under 2600lbs

For the street, I'm running 32/36 My shoe polish markers haven't even been touched even with some aggressive on/off ram driving.

Men, Thanks for all the responses...Thom, remember that if the ambient temp is high adjust your cold pressures accordingly. For example, I was running at Mt. Tremblant when it was 45deg out, I set my tires(Michelin Pilot Sport Cups) at 30psi and they only got to 35psi after 15laps. This was perfect since they only need to be at 35psi anyway. Good luck!!

Cheers, James
