Question Tire pressure with Euro Suspension?

Running 36/44 on winter tires (and summers). Street use only.

Thinking with the euro m030 and Bilstein HD, maybe too high? Feels a little loose in back - but that could be anything.

Thoughts? What are people running.

Thanks, Ross

IMHO: there s no "one-size-fits-all" with tire pressures... you can start with the tire manufacture's recommendations and then adjust to suit your temperatures, driving style, alignment specs, etc. I would start by dropping the pressure a couple of pounds at a time and test drive. Then add pressure back until you feel comfortable. Trial and error... just watch the "error" part.
