I replaced Trefore with Pilot Sports 4S 2 weeks ago. And thanks to tons of pollen, I could see how's tire status looks like.

Rears showed a kind of ideal, slightly negative side.

But front showed odd...

Only center and very inside are touching to ground.

I expected a bit over inflation. So tried to reduce pressure from 35psi to 30psi, but still like this.

My question is
Is 30psi for PS4S still to high ?
Do I need to reduce more until ideal touching mark I can see ?

Or something wrong tire itself... ?

I would very much appreciate your experienced advice 🙏

That is odd. I would have a 4 wheel alignment done to rule that out. I mentioned your camber settings in the other tire thread. Also I wouldn't run less that the recommended pressures. A few pounds more sometimes, but not much less. Heavy car and high speeds not a good combo with low pressure.

That rear looks like a lot of negative camber.
The front looks like some, but better that the rear.

Get a four wheel alignment done and then see what it looks like

Interesting, I would have to check that on my vehicle and see what I am getting!?? I have made the same kind of tire change you’ve done!
