Manual is in the car, will check later and confirm, but I think they will be 2.2 Bar, Pirelli I think were 2.4 Bar..??

I run my PZero's at 38 psi front and back.
I've had excellent wear, 18,000 km and the rears are starting to now be thought about.
Private track day this weekend may accelerate the replacement cycle.

As a greek, i tend not to believe in the manuals, but to my experience when driving. With 36 psi (2.5 bar) i achieve my max tyre performance. (Manual says a couple of psi lower).

StefanoCirilo, please give us a review of your supersports. They're probably my next set. Please mention if you have tried any other to your gs in comparison.
Thanks.

Mr Cambio, i moved from Falkens which were on the GS when i bought the car to Michelin Pilot Super Sports. The difference is night and day. Front end grip has improved substantially but the thing i notice the most is the rear doesn't seem to drift as much causing the traction control to kick in. Seems much better in the wet too. The only caveat i guess is that by default since the falkens were warn i am not comparing apples to apples. But i can at least say the michelin's are a great tyre and i have no issues whatsoever recommending them. Worth the premium!

Mine are 2.2bar all round. Vredestein Sessantas.

I like the extra bit of tyre play to offset the pot holes vs. sport mode dilemma !

I had a Pirelli blow out spectacularly on my 3200 whilst on the M6 and will never deliberately choose them again on a performance car. Since that happened, I read a lot of internet chatter and found that it was common. The softer sidewall is why Maserati recommend higher pressure on these and with our roads in the UK, that's not a good mix.
