What cold tire pressure do you run for street?

I think my Camaro likes its tires “hard”…

If stock tire sizes, then whatever is listed on the door sticker.

Otherwise, this: https://tiresize.com/pressure-calculator/

35 to 39 front, 25 to 26 rear, I want as much traction in the rear as I can get.

I took delivery in March with over 40psi... So my first mod to the car was to lower that down.

When I run the stock tires my car came with, 35 PSI like the door sticker says.

When I put on the set of 1LE wheels I have, 30 PSI like the 1LE's door sticker says.

My 1LE door sticker says 32, not 30

Interesting article about finding the optimal tire pressures for the track from Cone Coach:

Depends on the brand of tires, e.g., 4S 32#, R888R 35#, MT 24#, etc.
