What is the max pressure on the sidewall? You don't want to put max in but gives you a guideline

50 is too much yes that's only a max pressure reccomended. I would try 40 and see how that looks and feels, 32 maybe a lil soft and you will be scrubbing the shoulders

36psi is the starting point but I think he will most probably settle for around 32 further down the line.

Indeed it is!

You can get Cusco Tie Rod Ends that allow for an extra turning ability which is handy but they're not cheap.

Keep an eye on the inner and outer walls on a regular basis as both over and under inflation aid in killing tyres early.

I tend to stick to 28psi in ice or snow conditions and 32psi for any other time of the year. Kind of works out ok on every evo I've had so far.
