bumpy ride

So, my new G35x has been very bumpy since I picked it up Tuesday.

I checked the Tire pressure today and all for were 46-47 PSI

I set them to 34 and it rides much nicer now.

Called the dealer to let them know and they said, sorry we must have forgot to let the air out during PDI. They pump them up to 47 to prevent flatspots while sitting at the storage lot they said.

Nice

I just checked mine after reading this because mine too seemed a little bumpy and I read 42psi but that was after driving on the highway for a while. The sticker on the drivers door sil says recommended pressure is 30psi. I'm gonna check it again tomorrow when its cold and see what it's at and drain it down to 32psi.

Is there an actual pressure on the tire itself?

Yea, the tire says max psi is 44. The label inside the drivers door sil says 30. I lowered it down to about 34 from about 39-41. Will let you guys know how it rides.
