Anyone else running this dealer aftermarket combo want to share what air pressure you are running? I followed the owners guide for 18" wheels, but a hard bump feels like the tire is smaking into the rim. Am I running too low at 35psi? Anyone else have a comment on this?

35psi is right about on the money.

Yeah, I was afraid of that. I guess that is the drawback of low profile tires. But it is a good solution if you want to go to something other than stock, an 18" wheel, and absolutely no rubbing or fender rolling whatsoever. :cool:

I have driven a lot of 18's with the 245/40R18 and many with 275/35R18 in the rear. I have not found them objectionable at all. Hit the same big bump you might be itting with stockers, and I think you might be feeling the same thing, The handling with the 40's is a lot better than the 45's
Just my thoughts
