Pirelli Tire correct PSI 911
Hello all!
I have a 24' 911 Carerra. Recommended PSI for the Pirelli P-Zero tires (on the door info) is 37psi front - 45psi rear.
I know I should follow the recommend PSI but it seems so stiff and bumpy. I looked into this and Porsche recommends everything from low 30's to 34-39psi.
Seems as though there is a spectrum for psi. Fair enough. What do you guys recommend.
I live in California, so pretty good weather overall. Summers are hotter.
Thank you!

I rock 33/38.
Make the adjustment in your PCM for comfort spec, full load.

I have a '24 with same tires. It is stiff but do not have anything else to compare to. Just checked my tires and they are at correct pressures.

'22 4GTS. I run 33/38, everything unchecked in the PCM.

FWIW P-Zeros are terrible. I have 'em too, but am switching to Michelin PS4S N0 as soon as they are worn out. Related thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/992-turb...-zero-oem.html

Sorry, I can't help myself....This has been thoroughly discussed in other threads. You have other options for tire pressures that will vastly improve ride . Just look in your owners manual!!

32/35 cold for summer....plus 3 in each in winter

I am running the partial load with comfort settings on P Zeros, 29f/32r. PCM will tell you what to adjust to. 2024 Carrera T which = 20/21” wheels, Sport Chrono, and SPASM.
BTW, One ultimately needs to decide if they are going to run at partial load or full load. I highly doubt that many individuals here are actually running a full load. Per Porsche a full load constitutes as four passengers with cargo.

I have a 2020 Carrera S with 20 and 21 inch wheels and Sport Suspension. Using the door sill pressures of 36/45 psi results in a rough, uncomfortable ride rather like a truck. I unchecked all the boxes in the PCM and use 33/38. psi instead. It's still a bit rough, especially over railroad tracks, but much better than before.

factory max pressures are to minimize potential heat build up-related catastrophic tire failure when, say , traveling w max weight load of passengers/ luggage at extended max speed on the hottest day of the year , in the desert ...every auto and oem tire manufacturer has to factor that in per their default

How do you find the ride at 29/32?
