I found my steering got a lot lighter when I went beyond 44 psi to about 50.

That lightness is what gave me the idea to remove the belt that runs the p/s as well as the a/c. I'm sure powerLESS steering would be tougher at 30 psi than at 50-52.

Though I suppose you already have your tires up where you want them...

Driving Lean Burn '97 Civic HX, lotsa mods by now! '89 Volvo 240 is semi-retired. I did love that car though!
