Post Tire Pressure

Need some advice. Did a search, but no help. I'm runing 17" Pirelli's on my 82sc. Can anyone tell me what tire pressure I should be running for the street.

Thanks

Not sure on the 17" , but my 16s get 30 front and 34 rear as per the manual . Probably the same for you.

On my SC I run 30 front and at least 36 rear. I am told some folks run as much as 42 on the rear. I *thought* there was a Pcar tech bulletin to this effect; others will know better than I.

I run 40-42lbs in the rear with 245/45-16s and get less scrubbing of the tread center than with 34.
