tyre pressure
 
I am now running 275/35/20 and have a different pressure in each tire. What PSI should have in each generaly for motoway and fast road driving ?

will also probably change to nitrogen before the german trip +++

275/35R20 Y 102

front = 2.3 bar / 34 psi

rear = 2.1 bar / 31 psi +++

That sounds low.

Took mine to Kwik Fit and had all 4 tyres filled with Nitrogen for only £6.00 the lot

darrenjoe90 25th July 2011 09:19 PM

that does sound low. i thought they would be about 40 psi :Confused:

I've got mine at 44psi but they are 265/35/20.
You need to get it right. Had mine to low and I've lost the outer edge

Darren, did you sort the fingerprint reader?

I run my 19s at about 36-38 psi, so 40+ sounds about right (does it not say inside the fuel flap?)

You having bother with the fingerprint reader? It's fiddly btw, make sure you have two or three fingers registered :)

Well it was from http://www.tyre-pressures.com/ and then searching around the D3 A8's until I found the right wheel and tyre size!!

My Kahns are run at 40psi all around but they are 25 and 30 profile

Does anyone know what pressure I should run on my new 265/40R-20 on a D2 PF?

Thanks in advance
