Nt05r pressure?

Recently I've been running the 345/19s on my GS at 28 psi (cold). I've run them as low as 24psi, which will turn on the low tire pressure MIL, but to be honest, I can't say that the lower pressure helps my car hook any better on the street. I really like how these tires work on my car for regular street driving. I've seen a lot of comments about how drag radials will make your car squirrelly, etc. But at 28psi, I can still pelt mine around the abundant local roundabouts on these tires, and it certainly feels a lot better than the stock GY Runflats, which had become practically suicidal on my car after I installed the blower.

I run mine at 30 cold and do nearly 100% street driving with them. With that, it hooks 2nd at any speed with an A6 and 600whp.
I did try lower pressures, and it did seem to make 1st hook better, but IMO it made the handling worse. If I had more power, id probably be more apt to run them lower, but for now I just know to ease it through 1st before going WOT.

Run 30psi cold when running around everyday and drop them down to 16psi for the 1/2 mile stuff. Still won't hook 1st even at that low of air given my power and on/off clutch.
Hook really well from a roll though even at 30psi.
