[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->I've only autocrossed my X once, but I think you've got your bias reversed. Due to the inherent oversteer of a rear heavy car (59%/41% for X's), I would recommend higher pressure in the rear tires than the front. I ran about 40 rear/30 front and it still oversteered. The type of tire doesn't matter as long as they are all the same. Would you be interested in the Felonious Fiasco at Nathan's house? I think it would be fun/educational for the NE X people to get together.
Take care,
