Glad to hear that you're finally becoming one with your Cayman!

I'm curious to hear your experience with the Nittos (NT01s I assume). I found that I have to start off with really low cold pressures on the rears (like 28-29) and 31-32 on the fronts, to keep them under 40 psi hot (when they start to get very greasy) - what was your experience?

Thanks for the mount/cam kit parts reference. I will check them out.


At first I didnt pay too much heed to temps and found the car almost wandering in a straight line. It was a disconcerting wavy sway like there was lift at the front and rear. Tire temps were over 40. After that I aimed for 39 hot all round and next event 38. I havent decided on a front to rear balance yet. They were NT01's. 275/35 at rears although I ordered 275/40.

Below 40 the car sticks well. Starting pressures would have to be below 30 I suppose. TPMS warning light then goes nuts! Flat tire in red.
