Just wondering what setting you guys used. Using the factory 32 seems to make the ride more rough. I bumped it to 34 and it seems quieter and smoother. Anyone else play with the settings.

Usually, inscreasing the pressure does make the ride rougher. I have my stock tires at around 36psi, but thats more for better handling than ride quality.

Mine are 36 front, 34 back, but they aren't stock tyres. I like the autox feel on the street

The ride quality on mine gets instantly significantly worse if I let it drop below 32psi on any of the 3 sets of tYres I've had so far (Bridgestone Turanzas as OE, Falken ZIEX 512, and now Continental ContiSport Contact 2). Personally I also use 34psi normally - haven't tried anything much higher, although I might give it a go! After all, higher pressures are also supposed to reduce the rolling resistance and thus increase fuel economy slightly aren't they?
