33 to 34 on my conti sc3s, higher than usual, but below 30 they go squidgy and wonder around, keeps em in the right zone longer as they naturally leek down.

Do you find you get horrendous centre wear on the rears? Mine are down at 31 and the rears are down to the limit at the centre  with plenty of tread to the edges as if they're overinflated.

not that i've noticed, but drivers rear is only about 3k old due to a puncture on the previous one, and the pass side rear has a very slow leak so hard to tell what pressure its been runming on, i keep finding it at 28 to 27 after a week or so.
should add, i think thats usual on wider fitments on the rear ime, falkens(spit) where similar, as where the prvious goodyears of the previous owner.

I wonder if the rears get less camber variation with suspension movement perhaps?
