Default the right PSI for my tires

hey everyone,
I have had my new wheels and tires for about two weeks now and they are amazing. I have khumo escta 712's. They are 205/45zr16's . What I was wondering was what is the best PSI to run them on? i would appreciate any help,thanks.

Also why do birds wait till you have just cleaned you car to take a dump on it? god that pisses me off

Look on the tires and find the max. psi recommendation. I usually fill up 5-8 psi under max.


As for the bird thing...I hate them I think they purposely aim for clean cars.

yeah BB GUN em down! Just remember, the higher the PSI the less traction you'll get...BUT you will gain gas mileage with higher inflation. I would reccomend around 30 on the street and 25 @ the track. I had the 712's on my 17's in a 205/40/17 and i kept them around 30/32 for daily driving, felt great and gripped well. Just be careful on those tires in the rain when you are turning, they kind of suck in that situation.
