I just purchased Nokian Hakkapelliita RSi tires. Considering that more inflation gets better MPG but also gives less traction in the snow, what would be the best overall inflation?

i'd stick with traction in vermont. but that's just me.

The logical answer then, if you are MPG fanatical as I am, would be to keep the inflation high, bleed it down when it snows, and reinflate when the roads are clear. There ya go.

The important thing to remember is to keep that 2 psi differential between the front and back tires -- 2 psi greater in front.

Thanks, Firepa63. I am aware of that. I was going with 38, 36 with the Integritys but as a compromise will go with the manufacturers suggested 35, 33 or maybe down to 33, 31.
