Re: Tire Pressure
I would start at 20 and go up till it spins. You should be able to run up to around 25 if the car works as it should. I would probably shoot for the 21-23 range for a normal pressure.

Re: Tire Pressure
I run 21 lbs but on a 10" rim. A narrower rim may require less to get a full width footprint. Car weight and how hard the suspension works are also factors.
