While yours is at the OPC can't you get them to do a free geo check as part of the work? Then you can see how far it is off factory spec?

Hmm pick up Tuesday. Could email them now I guess so they get it 1st thing Monday. They probably owe me but I imagine they would want to charge me for the privilege 

It's a pretty simple process. I don't think I'd be scare of taking it to a general specialist. It's just knowing if there is anything to be gained (or if you can even) change to a fast road set up

Comfort tyre pressure for summer tyres up to 270 km/h (165 mph) (only for vehicles with 20-inch wheels, Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) and “Comfort press.” selection option)

Preconditions for using the comfort tyre pressure

  • 20-inch wheels
  • The vehicle is equipped with Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) and
  • The “Comfort press.” menu is available
    in TPM.

Procedure

For information on using the multi-function display, Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) and the tyre pressure type:

 

  1. On the multi-function display,
    select the “TPM” main menu
    and confirm.
  1. Select “Comfort press.
    and confirm.

Comfort pressure may only be set in the tyre if
the “TPM” main menu and the “Comfort press.” selection field are available on the multi-function display.

To set comfort pressure in the tyre:

  1. On the multi-function display,
    select the “TPM” main menu
    and confirm.
  1. Select the “Fill info” menu
    and confirm.

Information

Use only the pressure differences shown in
the “Fill info” display when correcting the tyre pressure.


  1. Read the tyres pressures to be corrected in the display and set the specified pressure in the tyre.

WARNING

Low tyre pressure

Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) is equipment-dependent, the “Comfort press.” selection is country-dependent and is not available in all country versions.

Driving at high speed and low tyre pressure destroys the tyres.

  • Only set comfort tyre pressure on vehicles with Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) and “Comfort press.” selected.

 

 

20-inch wheels

 

FA

RA

Boxster

2.1 bar (30 psi)

2.1 bar (30 psi)

Boxster S, Boxster GTS

2.1 bar (30 psi)

2.1 bar (30 psi)

FA = front axle, RA = rear axle

 

 

I guess you don't have TPMS  so the comfort setting is not an approved option.

 

I have all this and on the likelihood of not exceeding 165mph in Cheshire, I have set at 30psi which increase to 32 when on the road. I must say with PASM I am blown away with the comfort of this car compared to other cars I have driven over a very long time! Can't wait for better weather to use Sport plus!
