[s-cars] Tire Pressures

[Kirby Smith]

I don't think you would find Bridgestone SO-2s slippery at 36 psi.  I
run mine around 38 psi, and the tread edges still wear faster than the
tread center.  Optimal tire pressure will depend on tread construction
and section height, not to mention driving style, camber, etc.
