You're going to have to experiment to find out what works best for you. Last weekend I ran 36psi front, 34psi rear HOT; cold these translate to maybe 28 and 26 or so. Seems to roll the tire ok, more air can come out of the rear for sure, but I'm still learning about this car. These pilot sports will make a lot noise and give you a fair amount of warning before they let go. You'll find your car has more grip than you ever thought possible out of street tires.

I would recommend a higher cold temp for Mid-Ohio as the Carousel and the Keyhole both fall off and cause alot of push in the Viper. The Sports have a little more squirm than the old MXX3 , which was the favorite for track use over the past few years, but
alot of us found out the Michelin Tire Engineers that won the One Lap of America two years in a row, are running even higher temps than that. I will be at the Track for Viper Days, so look me up.


Cold 35-36 Front
30-31 Rear
