Bridgestone S-03 Tire Pressures
What pressures are you Bridgestone S-03 owners running?
Do the factory recommended pressures cover all types of tires? Or do tires differ in their pressure requirements? Thanks!

Optimum pressures will vary based on car weight, temperature, use, etc...
For normal street driving, I would follow the Mfg advice, keeping in mind that you want the front pressures slightly (2 psi) lower than the rear...

I just did 20k miles on 4 205X55X16 S-03s in a short time.. car was stuffed and weighed at 3 truck stops at 3,000 lbs w/ 3/4 fuel tank and me in it.. 15,000mi was average 65-70mph.the other 5,000 miles was around 55mph average. had to flip the tires. but wore flat/even across thread at 29/35..down to wear bars now.. I love 'em.. great street tire..........................Ron

draw a even line of chalk across each warm tire.
no chalk on the edge..... add a pound more air. no chalk in the middle .....take one pound out.
