[Chrysler300] TIRE PRESSURE

[Michael Moore <mmoore8425@xxxxxxx>]

Here in California, a new law went into effect which requires garages to check tire pressure whenever a car comes in for service.

I believe in factory recommended tire pressure as a baseline. The standard herein Ca  seems to be 35 psi.
My 2007 Subaru, my 1997 Benz, as well as my 59 TR3 have all had the 35 pound treatment and they each ride like an oxcart and steer differently at that tire pressure. The  Benz ought to be 28 all around, the TR ought to be 22 and the Subaru something else ? but lower. 

They all are much nicer to drive with FSM correct tire pressure.

My 300H  picked up 38 psi last week while visiting the garage.
 The FSM specifies 24 for the 300H. 
In 1968 when I bought my first set of Michelin X's for the 300H, the Michelin dealer said they would look low at 24 because they were radial, but the only reason to pump them up was if people kept telling me they were low! 

This morning I noticed American Classic, the mfgr. says to keep them at 35 psi or the whitewalls will crack.

Any experience with that? (I  don't like 35!)
