Again, that is for COLD tires pressure AND regular driving. If you are going on the track or going to drive more aggressively adjust the pressure DOWN - as the tires will heat up alot more more at high speed. Don't know pressures for AX, sorry.

I am getting at least TWICE the mileage out of my fronts and I am in the rear. In fact, I am on my 3rd set for the rear, while the fronts look fine.
I use about 7 lbs over the regular cold pressure.

In the notes for one of our first AX's it said to go to 40 PSI. That seemed like a big jump from my usual 29/31. I was one of the only Boxsters registered, so that made me suspicious. I looked up 911 pressures and 40 would have put them about 7 lbs over normal. Then I did a little digging (some of those racers' websites are pretty funny) and they were recommending going up 7. Long story short (I know, too late for that now) I'm glad I ignored the notes.
