2005 V6 Sportivo

36 psi (250 kpa) front and back is what I used to run on my gen5 Sportivo.

The tyre placard will only give you the minimum recommended tyre pressures.

at the moment i've got the standard rims with 205/60-16's on it and am running 36psi on the front and 34 psi on the rear and drive alone 95% of the time,. i find it works very well and have had the same tyres since i bought the car in nov 07 and they still have HEAPS of tread

but good wheel alignment helps too

yeah, i've also ran 36psi as well.

depends though, sometimes i feel that 36 is a little too pumped and it feels like that the tyre contact could sometimes be a little less.

But I'd still think 34-36psi.

Am also on the stock Michelin Vivacy tires with 38psi at the front, 35psi at the back; drive alone about 98% of the time; 99% of time in city traffic.

Have tried 36psi at the front and found that steering feels inaccurate as there is more flex in the sidewalls, but is offset by a slightly more comfortable ride especially going over bumps.

36psi sounds better for the 4-cyl model as the engine is lighter.
