I drive a 355 not a 348, but I control the inflation pressure to alter the understear/overstear properties and the driving experience. This is one of those (dare I say it--Ferrari) things where each driver can alter the pressures (a little at a time) to change the car to suit his driving style. When you get it right, the car will talk back with more information out the road surface and driving conditions.

32F 32R gives me an understearing car, while 35F 32R give a very neutral car on Bridgestone S02s 225/40-18 F and 265/35-18 R. Don't be afraid to take a pressure gage out and try about a dozen combinations until you find the right set for you and for the tires currently on the car.

The proper pressure depends on what model you have as it changed along with tire size over the years. The proper inflation preasure is listed on a sticker in the passenger side door jam on a 348.

32 all around I believe.

Whenever I check my pressure I wonder the same thing.
32 front, 35 back?
