Default Tyre pressure cant read Japanese

Hi all I was looking at my tyres and they were looking a bit low im not sure what pressure to put in them ive looked by the door and its all in Japanese



I cant work out what side is 2.3 bar and 1.9 bar.

Can someone tell me what pressure to put in the tyres? Im using standard 16 inch wheels.

Thanks

2.3 front 1.9 rear. More weight at the front because of the engine etc.

Thanks does anyone think 26psi is a bit low for the rears, also since the tyres have been flatter ive noticed that my MPG has gone down quite a bit can lower tyre pressure do this?

1.9 bar is 27.55 psi

2.3 bar is 33.36 psi.

Try 33 and 28, then increase/decrease until it feels best for you.

I used to run 36/31 (newage Sti so heavier than your's), there are lots of people running same tyres/wheels/cars but different pressure's so it really is personal preference mate.

I've run 34 and 32 in mine and felt pretty good. Car handled well and ride was comfortable.
