    Around the 30psi mark, although I run mines at around 32psi
    Couldn't think of anything good to put in here.

    Pretty much. Try wacking the fronts higher if you want better steering feel. Like 34psi. 28-32psi at rear. Works for me.
    Do you want to install and run "Adobe Flash Player 9"?
    No, now f*** ***.
