      AMuzi:              re: Corvair              The Corvair had a Front/Rear weight difference that       definitely warranted the big difference between       recommended front and rear cold tire pressures.              The cars I'm talking about are somewhere in between       that extreme, and the other: rear- and all-wheel drive       sports sedans with almost no(less than 55/45) front-rear       weight bias. The last time I checked, a typical BMW       F/R weight split is like 51/49%. Yet recommended       front/rear pressures differ by 5psi.              My Honda Accord, for example, is F/R: 54/46% axle       weight split. Some 'econoboxes' venture toward 60/40,       yet for the Accord and those cars, a single pressure       figure, for all tires, is specified on the door frame placard.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
