Tire pressure for 18" ZHP Michelins

What pressure are people running in their Michelin tires with the ZHP package? Front and Back.

32 front and 36 rear...door says 32 and 38 I believe...I went with 36 in back as I rarely have rear seat passengers or heavy cargo.

PS, I have Potenza's.

yes thats what it says on the door but also 38 front and 46 rear when loaded.

Im running 34 front 39 rear with no laod and the ride seems much nicer.
When I picked it up they had 35 all the way around.

if all you guys are running your rear pressure that high it's no wonder everybody is complaining about wheel spin

I couldn't understand why all the 330 people are having wheel spin issues since my Z4 doesn't have an LSD either and I don't have any problem

makes sense now

That is exactly what I did. But then I lowered the rears to 34.
