Initial pressure for R888s

The R888 are unlikely any tires I have driven. With the stiff sidewall, the car can run on 30psi without rolling over. Yet somehow the tire seems to work better

The R888 are unlikely any tires I have driven. With the stiff sidewall, the car can run on 30psi without rolling over. Yet somehow the tire seems to work better with pressure between 38-44psi, the car just has more grip with the high pressure. It is odd to say this, but I recommend 38-42 cold pressure on the R888 (a tire which I hate). I think Toyo recommended the same thing.
