Air Pressures for 275/40/18 NT01 on 18x10 wheels?

Can anyone give me some advice for air pressures to run on NT01 tires in 275/40/18 on 18x10 wheels for track days?

Thanks!

So would these pressures work for 305/35x18 NT01's also?

I haven't run the 305s but those are probably pretty good starting points.
 
I've been running NT-01 275/35 front and 305's in back. My notes from VIR showed I got the best performance with 35 front and 37 rear hot. I started with 29 front and 28 rear cold at 80 deg in the morning.
 
Shoot for -2 degrees plus.
 
Thanks NFSBOSS!

Arizona Agreement?

Nitto tech support just got back to me with this:

We would recommend a camber angle between -2.5 and -5.0 degrees.

Correct tire mounting should have one side of the tire, usually marked "OUTSIDE" on the sidewall, facing outwards.

Please keep in mind these are general guidelines for setting up your vehicle and the NT01s. The right setup for you would ultimately depend on what you feel most comfortable with.
