Possibly a bit more than I need to, 24-25 all around right now. I've only recently had the brakes all set up to a point of really getting them dialed in where I'm starting to do some aggressive braking. So, I had put just enough air in initially to "shut the tire warning message up".How much front tire pressure are you running.
I was unknowingly somewhat answering your question as well in the post above:Has it done this since day 1 or is it a new thing since you changed the brake system to manual? Technically it shouldn’t matter, but just trying to get a baseline.
I run the Nitto NT01 which seem to have a similar weight/pressure spec to the Pilot sport 275's I looked up. I run 12 psi cold front and drop that to 10-12 psi hot for autocross. I would recommend re checking to make sure nothing is loose and retesting in a safe location with lower tire pressures. FWIW I run 18 psi rear cold for street driving.Possibly a bit more than I need to, 24-25 all around right now.

Back in post 108, I mentioned triangulating my frame... Those red circles in the front of my frame is where we welded extra bars to strengthen it.
With just the passenger bar welded in, I noticed the front of my car was braking better. Adding the driver side made it even more stable.
If you were to use a cargo ratchet strap (or a come-a-long), and triangulate your frame, does it make the car more stable when braking?

Thanks for the ideas! I'll double and triple check hardware, joints etc and drop tire pressures a bit and see what happens. Following that I'll see if I can get some ratchet straps in there somewhere if it's still occurring at that point.I run the Nitto NT01 which seem to have a similar weight/pressure spec to the Pilot sport 275's I looked up.

Way too much realistically. I basically knew that but just casually driving around town and such it didn't really seem to matter. When I ever get to autocrossing or doing real things with the car was when I was going to for sure start focusing more on that among other things. But, wheel hop brought it to my attention a bit sooner.What pressures have you been running?
Makes sense. I would have to check again to see exactly what I'm at, but I know it's around or just under -1.0 if I recall correctly.This also goes back to alignment too. You only really need -0.5 camber up front. With this, you can adjust your tire pressure down until you have a good wide contact patch on the tire.
