Pirelli Scorpion Zero - What PSI?

Hey, (excuse the lay terminology!)

I only have road driving planned for the next 3 months.

What are the correct tyre pressures for a 19 inch HSE wheel?

Will increasing the recommended PSI improve MPG?

Personally I always increase it by a little....I find the car is a little more "planted" "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

It's on the door as stated

I run 3psi up on the door figure and it does help fuel use but makes the ride a little more harsh
My tyres wear very evenly and don't suffer the typical rounding off at the edges that you get at standard pressure

I recommend using a proper pressure gauge rather than the 1 at the petrol station I have found petrol station 1 well out in the past
Also to note the pressure is cold I have also found even a short drive makes the tyres warm enough to increase pressure Club original turbo
