I have the OEM runflats and run them at 35 front, 37 rear.

I drove the car for three weeks at 30 all around. I *think* the ride is better at 35/37!

Is it possible that at 30psi, the tyres ride more on the stiff portion of the sidewall, causing a harsher ride? It almost seems as though the extra pressure has given the tyres more "give", resulting in a better ride.

Could be wrong though - need to drop them again to see if anything changes.
