Hankook V12- 16" optimum pressure..

[Blackyv]

ok, after driven it for around 1mth, i'm almost adjusted to the feel of it from Ku31.. the only area im still exploring is the air pressure... for my previous Ku31, i pump 260F/240R and it works well on wet and dry and steering feel...... so, naturally i will pump the same for my new V12 to try it out and adjust accordingly...

 

looks like V12 is very "hard" with 260F/240R...drove for a week, dont like it.... it's not "holding" the road well to my liking.... toned down to 250F/240R.... well, still not to my liking.... especially on corner..... it doesn't gives me the confident i get from Ku31....

 

then further down to 240F/230R... better but still got the "weird" feeling of it not holding the tar well initially.... i drive for ~2week with this and at later stage, it feel better.... when i checked, it drop to ~225F/220R at at this reading, it seems to give me a better feel..... but so far, i've never pump so low for a 16" (for my stock 15", recommended is 230F/210R).........

 

any bro with V12-16" and care to share your experience with pump pressure?....

 

and btw, V12 is already noisy with 3K mileage.... it's definitely noisier than ku31 but i like tyre noise since it gives me the sense of security knowing im still touching the ground...

I've used my last V12 205/55/16 for about 42kkm and i pumped 240psi for both front and rear. 250 is too hard for my liking.

Noisy after 20kkm.
