Nitto 555 r2 tire pressure
Anyone got any guidance on tire pressures for the nitto 555 r2's? I thought I saw a thread on this recently, but can't find it. Running an 02z with 1.7 negative camber in the front and 1/2 negative in the rear.

I started at 30f/28r cold filled with nitrogen and it got up to about 35-36f/34r hot

I've played with it a bit based on #s Mungo gave me, and based on hot pressures was generally starting way too high. Originally was starting at 28lbs - front I was coming off track about 39lbs hot. This summer on an average 85 degree summer day I start at 26 front & 24 rear and adjust. Recently at NJMP in the cold/wet I started at 30 front & 28 rear and barely ever got to pressure.
I just noticed that Discount Tire only has limited sizes available, fortunately they're the sizes I use 275 and 305. Anyone had any difficulty in getting? Still priced under $1k per set.
Also, I've got three sets of these in various states of wear and # of heat cycles. Oldest set probably has ~ 30 cycles on them and still have some meat on the shoulders. Are they toast or can I still get some days out of 'em?
