70 Corvette Tire Pressure Question

[Chuck Z.]

Just had a new set of B F Goodrich T/A Radials (225/70X15) tires installed on my 70 Corvette and they put 38psi per tire. To me that sounds pretty high. Does anyone have a recommendation of what tire pressure I should be running? Thanks, Chuck

I have the same tires on my 72 and have found that 32 lbs all around seems to work well.

I run 36 lbs in my 1970 Corvette and 38 lbs in my 1996 Corvette. A co-workers work car that he drives 116 miles a day to work uses 44 lbs in his Honda Civic. His first set of tires on his Honda he got 140 thousand miles and the second set he replaced earlier than he had to with 110 thousand miles.
