at first this tyre is a bit lousy on corner due to soft wall but now i pump my tyre extra 20kpa and it is so good.. 240kpa front and 220 kpa at the back.. now it take corner much much better than before.

Iriz is FWD car. In theory it should handle sharp corner better when the rear tyre is much more inflated than front.

185/55/15 x 04pc.

after a week of drive on this tyre, around 1k mileage.
notice that it isn't that quiet after all, of course, much better than UHP.

Braking also become better.
FC suffers, only hitting 13-14km/L for 60% highway drive.
Formally, was around 16-17km/L on 195/45/15

also notice the workshop pump 250 for the front and 230 for rear.
should i follow?
Currently i pump 230 for all 4 wheels, softer and better stopping.
but slower acceleration.

Theoretically higher pressure at rear Tyre promote oversteer, which is good for front wheel drive. Anyway, 230 for all wheel will works just as good.

It's up to you indeed. Anyway, the guage on the petrol stations are not necessary the same. Best practice is pump at the same station to the pressure you feel comfortable with. +-10% to your car recommended wheel pressure does not hurt.
