I tend to use Shell Optimax 99.9% of the time, superb stuff. Since the petrol prices have risen, im now using Esso. They tend to filter the standard petrol better, and ive also noticed that i get better fuel economy as well as noticing a slight difference in engine response!

Optimax is top though :D

As for air, i reckon it shouldn't make much difference. I'd just keep it 31psi upfront and 30-31psi in the rear. :wink:
