Pressure...

I'm wondering your setup.... Tire size and pressure

mine: 225/45/18 - 2.2 bar or 32 psi. Summer time, don't know about winter.

225/45R18 pirelli p7 cinturato summer runflats

42 psi front and 36 psi rear

pressures arrived at using a tire pyrometer and "chalking" the tires

at the stock 32 psi front and rear these tires were terrible, very harsh, but with the increased pressure, the ride is much improved, turnin is better, they run quieter and so far, the wear is even both front and rear (almost 6k miles)
