Tyre Pressure?

Post by aaronon »

Hey everyone.

I've switched from my low profile 17's which had a tyre pressure of around 225 I think... And I'm back to the standard OEM 15 inch wheels.

Does anyone know where's you'd find which tyre pressure you're meant to have on your normal wheels?

I want to blow them up, but am afraid that they'll explode in my face.

This might be a silly question, but 225 what? :? Mine are 31psi, the info is on the inside of the filler cap door.

Normally the tyre pressure is the same across tyre/wheel sizes, it's based on car chassis weight, not wheel size.
