Road Feedback Through Tyres

[AWOL66]

I seem to feel every little imperfection in the road, and i mean every imperfection. Is this just me or is normal.

Are your tyres at the correct pressure Andy?

[AWOL66]

Yes, 32psi all round

A couple of suggestions...

- Check the accuracy of the gauge you're using, because some are badly out. Don't forget to check pressures when tyres are COLD, and have not been in the sun.

- Having done this, try running at 29 or 30psi (2 bar) just to see what happens. Some vehicles feel extremely nobbly and unpleasant when tyres are even slightly over-inflated (not seemingly the case here). 5psi over, and it can be quite nasty.

I'm obviously not recommending under-inflation as the normal way to go, but it would be worth an experiment. Don't go below 2-3psi below, or handling will be affected.
