Where Do I Find The Correct Tyre Pressures?
Just bought some new Wheels/Tyres.
Magic! STI Anthrocite 17" STI Jobbies. The Rim and stuff is bigger than the old ones.
Been on the Internet looking for info, no joy.
Details are, 225/50/7/R17/94W.
If anyone knows of a Site that will give me correct pressurs, I'd be dead grateful.
Thanks.
Kind regards

Tyre pressures are relative to the weight of the vehicle, and so do not change with varying wheels and tyres. The only variable is personal preference, or if you are carrying heavy loads at speed for long durations. Mostly, just put whatever it says in the handbook, no matter what wheel/tyre sizes.

35F, 32 R. I asked the same question a month ago and that's the answer I got.
Note that the handbook confirms the pressures at the front should be higher - it helps the handling.

Run the fronts 3pi more than the rears. Try 34/31- about right for this time of year- reduce or increase until you're happy with it. Just noticed your in Worcs, pop down to PowerStation and get them to set up your geometry (wheel alignment)- worth its weight in gold
