As Banshee said:thumb2 I run mine 27psi in the front & 29-30psi in the back but think the factory setting is 26F 29R unloaded & 33psi in rear loaded. Found every garage or tyre place thinks they have to have 40psi all round:banghead :banghead so check your pressures if they go near your tyres as when I had my tyres fitted they put 40psi in pulled out onto the main road & it was sliding all over the place as it was wet & icy but know something was up aired down the tyres to where they should be & got grip & a normal Terrano again

So after checking my pressures, seems the garage that did the tyres (four different fitters, one for each wheel i kid you not, put different pressures in,

35 36 36 39 :doh

Thought she was a big all over the place and also a good drifter :lol

I have now stuck the all terrains on 35 (possibly still a little high) but feels bouncy now as opposed to solid and feels v grippy

possibly but if you have them to high you wear your tires quicker

Drop your pressure down way to hard & as said you'll wear out the centre of the tyres & your road holding will be crap & very slippy in the wet/ice:augie TBH with the tyre aired right Terrano's hold the road very well & can be chucked about in corners if you want. The saving on fuel you could poss gain running the tyres hard is far out weighed by the cost of replacing the tyres sooner
