ph1 tyre pressures anyone running non standard pressures?

[mdss]

Hi

wondering what everyone is running for road use car is completely standard, i know renault recommend 21psi front and 30 rear, but i was wondering what every ones else is running more so on the front as i tend to run 32 at the rear and 28 psi front.
I assume at high speed slightly less pressure in the front will make the car feel a little more stable??
was thinking of running 23psi front but even though renault recommend less i feel this is very low and dont want the car to feel as though its rolling over on its sidewalls as the ride on a standard ph1 is already quite soft.

Very keen to hear every ones opinions

thanks

I run 20 front 30 rear much better steering feel - above the 22 at the front feels like ice skating!

And this hasn't made any issues to tyre wear because my last set of yokohamas did 20k miles

thanks wongy i may just try those pressures tomorrow and see what happens.
No harm in trying i suppose and also quite a subjective thing!

Thanks for replying

The first time I took mine to SG Scott said he'd reduced the front by 1psi as it gives better grip & feel.
Since then I've always run 20 and 30.

original spec for ph1 was:

Front 1.4 bar (20.3 psi)
Rear 2.1 bar (30.5 psi)

this was then updated to:

Front 1.6 bar (23.2 psi)
Rear 2.1 bar (30.5 psi)

mines running the updated pressures and feels fine, cant say i notice any difference between 1.6 or 1.4 bar though.

I once drove on 32psi (a garage had put it up that high) and it definately felt like driving on ice!

Thanks for all your experiences i will drop my fronts to 23.2 and see other than high speed i.e. motorways speeds the car feel stable so will report back my findings.

Thanks for all the help
