Hi guys any Exige owners running AD08Rs suggest cold pressures for 205/45/16F 225/45/17R combo please? Presumably just the same as the A048s but slightly less on the front due to larger contact patch, or is it higher due to wider contact patch?

The contact patch will be the same size, but maybe a different shape!
I'm running the same tyres on a MY06 Toyota Elise S2 and consensus from Tut & DJ was 23psi front, 26psi rear which so far has suited me fine for road and a few laps of KH.

I'd go a little harder personally. Service book says 26 front and 29 rear.

I ran them 24f and 26 rear on my S2, never had any issues, however, it wasn't an Exige.

Gone with 24/26 see how that goes... Out of note they have totally transformed the car the 48s on the front were the originals from 2008 so the car had quite a lot of understeer due to the fronts being hard. Suited me tho being new to the Exige/Elise platform.
