Tyre Pressures

I got a set of alloys with 195/55/15 rubber on them, what are the correct tyre pressures for these.

Thanks

Gulp - sure you've got 195/55 15?

I was about to jump in with both feet but my recomendation would be based on 195/45 15's

2.1 bar all round

Converted to PSI is 30 i believe am i right

2.1 bar all round

Carefull "carma" bearing in mind tyre pressures change with profile - i was gonna jump in with that but the tyre size made me think twice

shuldnt vary too much.....

Nahnah, that's way off. You need 45's, or 50's if your cheap. 55's will cause problems when lowered and look horrible.

I run 2.6 or higher, I add a little to compensate for high loads and high speeds.

Exactly what i was thinking - the higher the sidewall the greater the pressure needed to keep it stiff

But the tyre size did worry me - it's not like it's common size like 195/50 15's is it?

sorry theyre 195 50 15's lol
