hey everyone

just put new tire rim combo on the car (1987 765ti), columbia FWD volvo wheels 16 x 6.5 and 205/55 tires, with "GILL" spacers, just curious what psi should i be using, currently i put the reccommended 36 psi in the rear and 30 psi up front, but did not find the ride harsh, but did find hard and sluggish steering response. I figure i need more air, was just curious to see what other peiople are using with simialr wheel/tire combos.

also if it helps , i have ipd sways, bilstien HD's lowering springs, and i use the turbo + set up, and like to drive spirited
