I'll see how my car handles with the new pressure (+0.8 bar).
I have 235/35/19 fronts and 265/30/19 rears and am running 2.4 bar front and 2.7 bar rear with a perfect wear pattern across the width of the tyres. The ride felt a little "bouncy" after I took the RFT`s off but never twitchy. I solved the "bounciness" by fitting Eibach springs.

3.3 and 3.1 bar seems a bit high to me, isn`t that what BMW quote for their reccomended tyres at full load/high speed ?
