Re: Tyre Pressure Non Run Flats
2.2 bar on mine. 36 sounds too high and I would have thought gives a harsher ride than the normal pressure? Try coming down to 31/32psi. I ran that on the E53 with RFT and now on the X6 with 20".

Re: Tyre Pressure Non Run Flats
Agree with Richard. Run around 31/32, putting the pressure up too high will cause early wear in the centre of the tyres and could effect handling.

Re: Tyre Pressure Non Run Flats
What a difference with the right tyre pressures, feels so much better, will also be coming of the winter run flats when the time comes
