Think your RFTs are too harsh? Drop your tyre pressure!

My car came with Dunlop SP Sport 01 RFTs with 40psi all round. Since day one i've felt the suspension is way too harsh and i haven't really even enjoyed driving my car because of it. 7000km later and i still can't get used to this harshness!

So the other day i dropped the tyre pressures to 36psi and what a difference. Much more comfortable, the car stays flat and i can actually feel the suspension working to absorb dumps on the road, rather than just crashing and banging over them.

I can only imagine going to non-RFTs would be even more comfortable but for now i'm happy to keep these till they wear out.

That is all. lol
