Hi can anyone recommend tyre pressure for my 205-50-15 toyo R888's as the tyre shop that balanced them had no idea! .... i will be using them at Puke tomorrow.

Does it not say on the side of them?

For track work I'm running my R888's at 32psi hot with cold pressures 3 to 5psi lower.
As Puke is mainly RH corners the LH tyre pressures change more, so you have to start off lower than on the RH.
For road use I'd suggest 30psi.
See you tomorrow.
I'll be there from 10.30.

I will have a look but usually they only give max pressure & not general running psi which is usually lower on most tyres.
