Tire pressure? (Reply to this comment)
by pvreditor, pvreditor is an Advisor on Epinions in Cars & Motorsports
You might try experimenting with different tire pressures to see if these tires can lose the squeal. Start at 32 psi and see how that goes. If there's no change in the squeal, raise the pressure 1 psi and try again. Do this up to the maxinum rating for the tire (probably 35 psi but it might be higher) and see if there is a sweet spot.

Remember that tire pressure should be checked with the tires cold, before you have driven on them for the day. If you have been driving, let the tires cool off for two to three hours before checking, to get a cold reading.

Good luck!
