3rd Generation tire pressure

hey ppl,

the new rims i got are on semi flattened tires. what should i inflate the tires to? i checked the sticky for tire pressure but its not there. also, i got a 95 so stock is 15 inches, while these are 16 inch rims. (tire size is 205/55/16) i believe (if not its 65/15, opposite of stock). what shud my tire pressure be? 2 of the tires are at about 25 lbs, ones at 12, one doesnt push teh tire gauge out at all haha.

thanks in advance

lol...i did you say you got some aftermarket wheels and tires?..then i'm guessing you'll have to follow the pressure stated on the tire.....
......lol...how good are you with the neighbors? grab a kid and ask them to read it for you.

you can probably keep tham at about 30psi like you would your stock ones. You dont want to use the pressure on the side of the tire since that is max pressure. You are only really going to use max pressure when you have the car loaded to capacity with either riders or cargo. Most of the time the max pressure is somewhere around 50psi and if you run that you will probably not like the way the car rides. Keep it around 30 and you should be fine.

doesnt matter about the manufacturers jsut run them at 30 -32 psi and you should be good if it seems to hard a ride then you can take a little out if it seems to soft add a little bit to them.

usually like cyorke said...30-32 PSI is a pretty standard measurement for tires (at least non-low-profiles)...

arrgh....


manual says:

220/ 2.2 / 32 kPa/ kgf/cm cubed / psi ---respetively

those are for stock 205/65r15


i say stay over 30 and don't go over 45...you 'll avoid underinflating and over inflating...just ride according to the way you want it ie fill to your comfort--the more it is filled the more harsh.

and i still say since they arn't stock, you should at least consider what the tires say

go with 32 and jsut keep an eye on them to make sure you dont start getting some really weird wear patterns and things like that. You will be fine at 32.
