          Another Tire Pressure Question

          I am running the Mich. Pilot Sports on my 2002 M5 and just filled up the tire pressure today to 40f/40r. The weather was very humid outside and approx. 90 degrees outside when I filled them up/read the pressure. I am using the BMW tire pressure monitor to check the tire pressure.

          Do you guys think this is an okay setup for around town driving/highway driving. No tracking, no laying down patches, etc.

          Thanks,
          Keith

          I have Dinan Stage 3 suspension and just got a set of PS2's. Right now I'm running 40psi all around as well and it feels pretty good.

          1 Bar = 14.7psi

          It is very close to 3 bar.
