Wayne,

Checked the pressures in my tires as I usually do every two weeks. The temp last time I adjusted it was -20C and now it's more like 0C. Found that the fronts were at 34psi and rears at 32. Lowered the pressures to 31 front and 30 rear, and the ride is definitely softer. Not like the stock springs, but softer than the rocks I was on. Still is a bit harsh, but will have to drive a bit more to decide, and also have to try my summer wheels and tires 205 50 16.
