Recommended Psi For Front And Rear Tyres?

[mercury 0]

Hello guys,

 

ive got the standard pepperpots mags which i believe is 14inch. What would you guys recommend as the PSI for front and rear tyres?

 

The fronts are currently 26psi.

 

Cheers,

Merc

G'day,

 

This has been covered a few times, general consensus seems to be for 28-29 PSI, although I dont know if the higher temps in Oz might have a bearing on whats ideal down under.

 

Mine are 29 PSI

oh so the higher the temp the lower the psi and the lower the temp the higher the psi?

 

My apologies for not initiating a search.

That to me would be logical, air expands as it heats, but how much ambient temps affects tyre pressure I wouldn't know.

Standard pressure for the UK with the 185/60HR14 tyres is 29psi but your car could have a tyre size & inflation info placard on the back of the drivers door near the locking mechanism.

 

Gaham.
