screw more psi in the tires.

[Rick]

Strange, when I took my Cobra through the Bondurant school of high performance driving they REQUIRED that my tires be inflated to sidewall max. Not negotiable.

I have the stock Goodyears that Toyota puts on the 15" steelies. My three-door hatch is a hopeless, hapless disgusting pig in the corners with 32 psi in the tires. The TRD rear sway bar helped some, but running 51 psi front and 50 psi rear makes it dry corner like it's on rails. That's only six psi higher than sidewall max. These tires are wearing evenly so far as well. I'm not saying that any old tire can accomplish that though.

Also, most of the pothole related tire failures I've seen were the result of the sidewall being pinched (crushed) between the road and the wheel. Higher tire pressures should make that harder to accomplish.
