Tire pressure

[Solace]

My SVTF came with stock Continental tires. Ford recommends 32 and 29 Psi in front and rear respectively. However, at this pressure the ride becomes really harsh. Any thoughts? Seems like 28/25 Psi in front/rear is a good compromise.

TIA!

Follow what Ford recommends. If you're worried about ride harshness, you're probably better off switching to another tire brand or moving "up" the rim size i.e. 16-inchers.

I wouldn't recommend going to a lower pressure. A lower pressure would lend itself to compromising the tire's sidewall stiffness. This would affect both your handling and tire safety. Besides, by going down that far in the pressure scale, you're wearing your tires more.
