I know this is mainly down to personal preference and has probably been discussed elsewhere but what tyre pressures are my fellow "18 inchers" running?

I am looking for the most comfortable but with even tyre wear, I don't want anything too low.

The best thing i did was ditch the horrible manufacturer supplied bridgestone potenzas. Aweful tyre and fitted some new Goodyear eagle f1 assymetric 3s and the difference is night and day

I'm actually due some new tyres, still got the factory Potenza's on so I might invest in some decent rubber, cheers.
The difference really is night and day. You will be gobsmacked at just how bad the original bridgestones are.

Even driving the car at low speed the ride is 100x better. More response more grip.

Both Bridgestone's Potenza/Turranza's range of tyres are not the best, I had the latter. Offerings from Goodyear and Michelin are much better.
