Anulfo 22 Posted June 10, 2008 Hi guys im running 195/50 tyres on the 15inch 205gti rims (as im sure a few of you guys are too)....Just wondering what kind of pressures you are running? Im guessing 29-30psi?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordfish210 20 Posted June 10, 2008 I run 27F and 26R on my TU engined 205 with 1.9 wheels. I would suggest on yours that for road use with a normal road tyre you sould try 28 all around as mentioned previously Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fox 3 Posted June 10, 2008 I've been running 30 all round, I'll try 28 now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimistdt 1 Posted June 10, 2008 I am running at 29 PSI. I had to take it down from the 32(!) that the garage had put in when I bought new tyres. I no longer experience as much understeer with the lower pressures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M_R_205 5 1 Cars Posted June 10, 2008 XS on 165/55/13 40 psi, the way petrol is going every little helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GTI6BOY 29 Posted June 11, 2008 28psi all round, Sticks like glue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
number2301 1 1 Cars Posted June 11, 2008 Isn't 32 standard for the front? I haven't driven my car in ages but I seem to remember it being 32F/29R as per the manufacturers recommendation. Never fiddled with it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDude 33 Posted June 11, 2008 30 Front 26 Rear I'm running SBC Phase II suspension - it is their recomendation to run the rears that low to get some heat in the tyres. Sticks like sh1t to a blanket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim.Badger 15 Posted June 11, 2008 Just to be awkward; 28 front, 30 rear as the front tyre pressure will increase more with driving as the drive tyres should be warmer than non-drive tyres. Still sticks like glue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
