Play with 'em and see how they feel. Anywhere 32 - 42 pounds is gonna be alright, but if you're sensitive, you'll find a pressure that yields the best combination of ride and handling ( and maybe wear), and lets the sidewall construction work as designed. I've found it to be 37/35 for stock contisports, the same or a pound more for my PS2's, 3 lbs less for my RE050A Bridgestones.

Pros: best combination of ride, handling

The H rated 18" bridgestone dueler H/Ls seem to perform about 90% as well as the V rated OEM Contis that I replaced them with. IMO I gave up 10% of the sticky feel of the Contis for the awesome tread wear of the bridgestones...

Pros: awesome tread wear
Cons: less sticky feel

I had the same problem with my Bridgestone Potenza RE050's. I contacted Bridgestone directly and they told me that they would warrranty my tires at a pro-rated cost. My tires had 20K on them and they met me halfway. I ended up with a brand new set of Bridgestone Potenza RE960A/S Pole Position's with UNI-T for $400 installed (Usually $800). I've had the tires for about 6 months and they are pretty quiet compared to the RE050's.

Pros: quieter than RE050's
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 20000 km

The Pirelli PZero Nero M&S is a ULTRA PERFORMANCE tire [one step down from the MAX PERFORMANCE] and is an all-season tire, which is a compromise in handling compared to the Kumho MX's.

Pros: ultra performance tire
Cons: compromise in handling

I got me a set of Pirelli PZero Nero M&S tires in March, reading all the good things about them. Right after I got them put on, they seemed out of balance. I took them back and had them rebalanced, and they still acted up. Annoyed, I just let it slide. But today I took it back to the shop and told them to rebalance them. They took a look and said that they had factory defects (\"excessive wheel hop\") and couldn't be balanced. They suggested I contact TireRack. I took it to another shop and had them balance the wheels, thinking that the other shop just might have been having problems with their machine. They balanced them, but the jitter is still there in the steering wheel, exactly at 65 mph and above. Someone mentioned that the tires have a deeper tread, and I should just wear them down a bit and see if it helps. They've only got 2,500 miles on them, but it's really annoying at highway speeds constantly feeling that jitter.

Cons: factory defects, excessive wheel hop
Mileage: 4023 km
