Dear All,

I've recently swapped from stock size tyres (205/50/16) to 215/40/17 and the dealer recommended pressure values of 2.5 bar (about 36 psi) front and 2.2 bar (32 psi) rear.

Is that ok? Any suggestions or recommendations?

I am running 35psi all round with this size tyre. Wear has been very even over 13000miles and I still have plenty wear left. I found that when running 32 psi the inner side of the tread wore out on the fronts.
I am using Toyo Proxes T1s
