Thomas....
Assuming you are running radial tires and stock shocks and sway bar, our
(dare I say vast) experience suggests that 26lbs front and 28lbs rear is
the ideal combination. If you do a lot of high speed touring, increasing
both ends by 4lbs. will reduce tire heat build-up and prolong tire life.
Only if you have fitted a rear sway bar should the rear pressures be the
same as the front. You should never put more pressure in the fronts than
the rears! This makes the car oversteer.
