    Just wondering what the general consensus is on what tire pressure to run on the street on stock Pirelli's?

    depends on the road, door pressure is too much. IMHO

    Anyone else suffering endless problems with the TPM calibration constantly going wrong?

    Your TPMS batteries are probably nearly gone and the sensors need replacing. The latest Generation 1.5 sensors have longer battery life. It was only 3-5 years on Gen 1 sensors.

    Factory spec front 30 rear 29. Check to see if the campaign for replacement tires was done.
    If not bring to authorized dealer Four new tires.

    Thanks to everyone that replied. I have new tires that were intalled 400 miles ago. I have been running stock, but I know that sometimes, especially after 6 years of this model being out, that sometimes it's better to run higher/lower numbers as discovered by driving on them over time.

    Resurrecting this old thread as I've been thinking about adjusting tire pressures as a way to affect the front-rear balance of the car. Specifically, I am wondering if anyone has run increased pressures up front in an effort to reduce understeer. If so, let us know your experiences/impressions. Thanks!

    Hmm, wouldn't increasing front tires cause more understeer? I'm sure there is a optimum pressure for optimum balance.

    I have never pay any attention to the tire pressure specs on the inside of the driver's door, unless the car is brand new. A previous owner may have changed tires, thus rendering the min/max pressure in the door info wrong. I normally run the minimum pressure + 5 lbs, as stated on the tire.
