    I've done a couple of track days now, so I'm looking to change to a better tyre. I've got hold of some 200/55/17, 120/70/17 Pirelli supercorsa's. There the sc2's.
    I'm getting lots of different advice on tyre pressures for the track. So I'm just after some advice off any one out there who uses these tyres.
    I've been told HOT pressures to be 34psi front/26psi rear. Do these sound ok to start with?
    Cheers.
    Chris.

    not too far off,best thing is to ask the tyre guys at the track,they usually have a board up giving the pressures for each tyre.

    26 hot for the rear sounds a bit low as I've been running 29F/26R cold on Racetec's, although I'll be changing back to SC's soon as I've only got a few mm left.
