The TKM tyres are a pretty hard compound so regardless of pressures, will always be "interesting" without heat in them. The lowest pressures I can remember running, on the hottest of days, is around 14PSI. On a freezing cold day +30PSI. When we ran on Green Maxxis Wets, they were hard enough to run in the dry on a cold day with no problems. The real key is to get the heat in them as quickly as possible and this means driving hard in the first laps, not waiting for the tyres to come on.
