In searching, I'm seeing a lot of variation on tire pressures for the Pilot Powers.  Everywhere from 24 to 32.  What do you guys use?

Also, what temp should I run them at on the warmers?  I wasn't able to find anything on this?

Thanks for any responses in advance!!

Michelin Pilot Power...28 rear and around 31 front.  They really aren't dependent so much on tire warming.  I'd run them minimally.  What do you have for warmers?  The rear is not to be ran at a low pressure like the Power Race.

And make sure your tire guage is reasonably correct, otherwise, your ruler isn't relevant.

I usually run mine 28 rear and about 28-30 up front so it doesnt flex to much.

Thanks for the responses.  I'm using T2 tire warmers set at about 150-160 degrees.

I wouldn't think you need that much on the front.  We use 140 for the front.  When I tested Power's, I only heated them to 100 so I could try them colder without taking too much risk.
