the recommended tire pressure for a Corvair was 15 psi fronts, and 26 psi rear

that's very weird

    The Hillman Imp was similar - http://www.imps4ever.info/tech/tyres.html

  2. That's because there's very little weight on the front tires. If they were inflated up to the same pressure as the read, the car would plow in the corners. With radial tires, I used to run mine at 21 psi in the front and 32 psi in the rear.
