I have MY01 with 215 x 45 x 17's

Recommended tyre pressure?

The plate on drivers door column a bit confusing (i know im thick )

Thanks - Steve (AKA Webmaster10)

 

I run

33 Front and 28 Rear

As recomended by TSL after the Geometry was checked

Phil

 

I checked mine the other day, 34 both front and rear (tyres were well warm) does the pressures you mention apply to cold tyres (as per handbook)

Cheers

 

I allways measure mine when warm

tyre presures are as recomended by TSL

Phil

 

What about 215 40ZR 17's anyone, ive always ran them at 30 ps on all 4 corners but get a slight vibration over 90 mph, its not the tracking or balance as i had it done this morning and it still remains?

Dave

 

i think that tyres should be checked cold, it makes a lot of sence when u think about it. there are varying degrees of warm

warm
slightly warmer
toastie

each temp will give a different reading

so does anyone know what they should be when cold?

 

All tyre pressures should be taken from cold.

As the tyre heats up there is more pressure in there, which will give you false readings, never assume a warm tyre pressure is correct, can make a few lbs difference to the pressure with every few degrees of heat.

 

Do these tyre pressures apply to 18inch wheels as well?

 

Please does ANYONE know?

PLEASE

OK lets get specific

Just me in car, goin on a fast drive tomorrow (windy roads in Wales) roads damp, what pressures will give the best handling?

I thought this would be a simple question

Sorry Steve

what don't you understand


28 FRONT

33 REAR

AS RECOMENDED BY TSL MOTORSPORT
IF YOU WANT TO MEASURE WHEN COLD THEN FINE BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN THE PRESSURES MENTIONED ABOVE ARE WRONG

Phil

 

try 34 front and 33 rear.

 

I allways measure mine when warm

tyre presures are as recomended by TSL


Whats the temp of your tyres when u check em? TBMeech is right temp can have a big effect on the reading...

(lets keep this light hearted )

anyone from TSL in the house?

 

Steve

I spent the whole day at TSL having my eibachs and geometry done and tested

Lynsey(spelling) then supplied me a complete report together with the recomended tyre pressures that are recomended

as I said I tend to measure mine when warm so perhaps I am wrong in that respect

And that is my final word on the subject
