Better all weather performance than the original S02s.
Been running multiple sets for many years.
I have an AP1 and run 30/32 to minimize need to cross steer.
Follow Ups:
YES, I noted my S-2000 WAS VERY sensitive to tire pressure.....though I never varied from what the label in the door jam said.
A slow leak from a nail? You could identify the tire just from how it handled.....worse......
That being said? I NEVER have had so many flats. Cost me a BUNDLE replacing tires which had a big metal scrow right AT THE EDGE. And more. PUlled out of drive one day, heard a POP and that was another tire. Neighbor had a fridge delivered a couple days before and I found one of the palled hold-down screws........
Too much is never enough
I've fine tuned handling using tire pressure for decades.
With the Ridgeline, I take the opposite approach and carry two lbs more in the fronts to minimize understeer.
I did Extensive Pressure Tests in my '73 Super Beetle.
Sticker called for something like a ridiculous 17 / 24 for the origianl Bias ply tires.
I put 165-15s on it and started 'upping' pressure while maintaining the F/R difference.
When I went to 185-70 15s on Porsche takeoff rims? I ended at about 25-32 which gave great handling AND a decent ride.
Experimenting with the S-2000 involved speeds I was NOT comfortable with on public streets.
