I have a set of V710's I'll be trying out on Sunday. They are 225/50/R14's. What is a good starting point for pressures on these tires?

I'd start them about 5 psi lower than victoracers or Ecsta V700's and bleed DOWN from there.

I found that 30 lbs rear and maybe like 32 or 33 front worked well on my car. You will love the V710s after running the V700s.

Thanks for the replies. I ran 32F, 30R on the 700's, so no changes in habits necessary! 8)

Adam says that he runs his V710s MUCH lower than the Hoosiers. Something like 30/30 at Dixie last weekend compared to the 40's for the Hoosiers.
