tire pressure
#1
I have an S with the 17 inch performance runfats. Yesterday while driving home from the store, the flat tire light came on. When I got home I checked the pressures, 33 in left rear and 37 in all others. What do you all recommend as tire pressures for max traction before I just go with 37 all around.

I 33-38. 33 (for the same pirellis) felt far too sloppy to me--it was pushing much too easily in the turns. I'd go with a minimum of 35 as a compromise between handling/comfort. I've actually just left mine at 38 (though it's harsher/noisier), I'll take the better handling.
Garfield (here or @ MINI2??) said that running 35 front/37 rear actually produced better handling. I haven't taken a moment to try it out.
HTH,
