Goldilocks tire pressure

I didn’t realize that Porsche used Partial and Full Load nomenclature for Comfort Pressures as well. How confusing. I think the implication from the “country dependent” wording is that Comfort Pressures are meant for third world countries with poor road infrastructures, which given that you’re in NoVA, might be fitting. 😆

Set when tires are cold. I choose the middle pressure range. YMMV of course.
Front: 33 psi
Rear: 38 psi
Be sure to let the car know which of the three pressure ranges you choose. If you get it wrong, you may occasionally get error messages that say your tire pressure(s) are out of spec.

Just to clarify the comfort/full load settings will not change anything at all in feel - it will just allow you to lower the tire pressure without throwing a low tire error message. The actual setting does not do anything other than that.

I ran 29/32 for a while and with SPASM I could drive with suspension on the stiffer setting all day without issue. Now I like to keep it around 33/37 cold and drive with the stiffer suspension on maybe 60% of the time. A bad patch of tarmac and I’ll feel it so I toggle it off. Luckily Florida roads are in decent shape. I also feel like the Michelins are more compliant than the Goodyears were.
