I wouldnt bother. Would cost a much to do as to sellyours and buy a real one with a big engine.
Colour code it, lower it 60mm, fit a 182 grille, 182 wheels and a sport interior.
And then enjoy it!
Dont go by numbers with pressure, it'll vary so much throughout the day.
Do a few laps, see how much scrubbing you get on sidewalls.
Aim for about 1/3 - 1/2 of sidewall and you'll prob be at the right pressure.
They look pretty, but do absolutely nothing.
For them to do anything would need to be welded properly to the chassis, and even then would be no point making the car stiffer unless it lives on track.
I started doing that... but figured that if i sold the extreme and bought a 172 it worked out sh*t loads cheaper.
A retrim will probably cost you as much as the price diference between your car and a 172 with leather/ alcantera seats as standard.
