Tkc 80 Tyre Pressure

I have just fitted a pair of tkc 80 tyres and was wondering what pressure to run for road use.

I think I ran my TKCs at 30psi front and rear...

When I first fitted the Pirelli MT21s, they were appalling at 30+ psi, however, dropping them to 25psi made a huge difference...

I don't think the TKCs are as variable, but if you don't like them at stock pressures, try running them a bit softer...

Just Taken a set off and as Jenny said 30psi front and rear works well! Trying Mitas E07s now..

I'm running mine at standard pressures and they seem to do me very well, even from cold (as I rarely get to travel more than 3 town miles in a single trip)
