They were on a 3700 lb Cadillac @ ~40psi cold at Road America... 17s... heavy car... as they say, your results may vary. I do know that Bob Bondurant ran 40psi in 15" street tires on his Superformance for aggressive driving. But as you said, that's not the type of driving you will be doing. I guess my point is that I would run them and play with pressure to get an acceptable feel on the street. Actually, they'd be on my car now if they made a 335-17.
