Default Air pressure.

I just pumped up my tires from their normal 32 psi to 38 psi, and did not notice any difference in ride comfort. Thought the run flats would become hard as rocks, but the difference was unnoticible to me.

Anyone else have the same exprience.

I had the Dealer inflate my RF to 45 psi, or 12 additional psi over the standard Door Piller Inflation Rate of 33 psi, and because of the extremely Stiff Side Wall, had the same opinion - Very Acceptable! Seems like they have designed the Side Wall to hold up at 55 mph for 100 miles, carrying perhaps 4,100 llbs, with passengers and gear, so the increase in inflation, in my personal opinion, will not be significantly noticeable.

My RF Bridgestones indicate that they can be inflated to a maximum of 51 psi.
