Fuel economy and emissions. They will be the pressures used on the rollers to achieve the government figures.

Thats makes sense then. I just couldnt understand how 38psi would give great handling characteristics to be honest..

Plus the tyres are all worn more through the center with the silly pressures !

Gonna get myself some goodyear eagles next week so hopefully will be much better and also get rid of the serious road noise i get aswell !
