You always have to run higher pressures on concrete over asphault. the tires 
have more grip and are working harder. The exception of course would be on 
sandy or wet or icy concrete.

Okay, this reminds me of another question.

What's the general concensus on tire pressures as related to different
driving surfaces?

I finally got my tire pressures adjusted to the point where I get nice even
across-the-tread wear and am not wearing out just the outside shoulder. But,
this is on our local crummy asphalt sites.  Which way is the accepted
direction to change the pressures for sticky concrete surfaces?  Up or down?

Thanks in advance.

See you on course.
