Default Does anyone run MPSS tires for street? Please share your tire pressure.

33F / 39R (cold) seems to be the most popular combo for 997 (non-GT3) drivers running MPSS. Just curious if anyone here has MPSS tires and what your street pressures are (please specify "cold" or "hot"). Thanks much.

27F 28R Cold. Any lower it'll trigger TPMS warning. But for street use they're perfect for me.

Remember running 34F/39Rear as per owners manual on 996 C4S for street use, which I realize is a different tire size than GT3.
DE Instructor (and PCA CLub racer) had me lower 5psi per tire at track.
