Quick question. 
The book says the ES nose wheel tire pressure (Condors) should be between 28 & 30 psi and do not exceed 32 psi, with the mains at 60 psi. 
I just talked to one of the guys at Lancair (didn't get the name) and he said they carry 45 psi in the nose tire and 55 in the mains.  I looked at a Columbia 400 last weekend at the Madras Airshow and it was placarded 88 psi for the nose tire and 55 psi for the mains. 
I just put a new set of Michelin Aviators on the mains of my ES and am trying to figure out what pressures to use. 
Can someone shed some light on this?
