So, 5 pages into a request for empirical evidence, and this thread is no different than any other tire inflation thread; how disappointing.

I have learned some neat things regarding inflation for maximum cornering though. It would be neat to see someone do a braking test and compare it to the cornering test to see how closely the 2 optimal PSI figures come.
