What fuel in an 893 blade and whay tyre pressures with 888s

Hi all. As per the title, what fuel do you put in an 893 blade, unleaded or super unleaded and what tyre pressure should I run with 195/50R15 888 medium compund?

No point putting super in your blade unless you have aftermarket ECU that's adjusted your ignition timing accordingly to take advantage of the higher octane. Though I do tend to chuck a tank of V-Power through every now and then, since it's apparently got useful detergents etc. Whether it does any good or not I don't know, but it certaintly can't harm.

Tyre pressure's for R888's on a light seven type car for the road,want to be around 18psi cold,I would drop them down to 16psi for the track,they should then go up to around 20psi when hot on track.

I run regular unleaded on mine (918) with no probs.

Use regular on my MX bikes too and again no probs. Only find you need the better stuff when you start running high comp. or tune them put bluntly

As for 888's I run 18psi on mine and find it works lovely
