I run 34psi in the front and 26psi in the rears when dry and 30psi front and 24psi rear when wet.
If your running slicks with a proper amount of camber on the front then probably around 30psi will be max required. But it will vary from car to car.
Why's that you run 34 in front and 26 in th rear Mark?
Cheers
I spoke to the Michelin guy at Oulton Park last time and after doing a few laps and the tyres get warmed up u could do with checking them as with the heat the pressure will rise so u need to let some air out.
Definatly check your pressures ever now and agian. Mine after turning up at a track once were 31 at the front and that was high speed moroway use all the way there (300 miles). 4 laps later I came in and they had gone to 37psi. lowered them back again went out for another 4 laps or so and they had gone up again to 35psi.
The front left takes most of the abuse and increased heat followed by the drivers front.

Gives masses amounts of grip on the front and makes the rear more progressive going into oversteer.
