MrRadi8 Posted October 13, 2007 #1 Posted October 13, 2007 From the letter I received from Avon, I just came back from putting 42 psi front and 48 psi rear. DO IT!!! That's what I was looking for when I bought the Avon's in the first place. High speed much improved and sticky in the twisties. Try it, you'll like it.
eagleeye Posted October 13, 2007 #2 Posted October 13, 2007 I'd be interested in reading the letter. Steve
