They list the front pressure as higher than the rear's - Have they got it wrong or do they know something we don't?

If you question them they do say the pressures on their Web site are maximum pressures. Most people run lower pressures. I would say try running BMW pressures and see how they feel. I run mine slightly higher than BMW.

They always do seem to spec a higher pressures but they conflict with standard as they say higher on the fronts.

That's funny, the guy fitting my Vreds said the pressures should be higher on the front as well. Until I put him right :?

IIRC stock pressures with run flats is 2.3bar on the front and 2.6bar on the back (I'd go check, but it's raining quite hard out :oops: ). I think that equates to 33 / 38 PSI.
