Kumho v710 tire pressure
What cold and hot pressure do you guys run?
These will be for HPDE and not Autocross. I have searched previous threads and see quite a range of cold/hot temps out there. I have street/track compromise alignment with about -1.3 front camber.

I found that 28psi front and 24psi rear, cold, worked best for me. 315/35/17 all four corners and an autox alignment. This was with upper 80 degree outside temp and 90 percent humidity. After about 10 laps the pressures would increase by @ 10 degrees. Also, an additional tip, make sure to use a good high temp brake fluid such as Motul or Castrol SPF.

I would run 28 front and 26 rear with a square 315/35/17 setup. Would use the same cold pressures for autocross and HPDE.

I am running 18 inch wheels and have a wide body so the v710s will be 305/30/18 front and 345/30/18 rear. I think 28 front and 26 rear cold sounds like a good starting point and I can let air out as the day goes on if necessary.
