Tire PSI for 97

[97 corolla]

does anyone know the tire PSI for the 97 toyota corolla dx sedan

[Maxpayne124]

should be 32psi. look in your users manual/glove box/ driver side door pillar. their usually in one of these 3 places

also...if there not factor tires i would go by what the tire says it should say some where on the wall of the tire..around th 30+ psi mark

[coroman]

30psi?

[KaMLuNg]

32 psi on my 97 rolla DX

I run 36 front 32 rear, helps tire deflection during hard turns.... helps tire life, better gas mileage

That's the max pressure you can safely inflate the tires to before it blows off the rim, not the pressure to run normally in the tire. You can generally inflate a bit to seat the bead, but then it needs to be lowered once it's seated.

For most cars, the pressure is around 30PSI. And yes, I mean cars, not trucks, suv, minivan etc. My truck at work has 80 PSI in the tires and HUMVEEs get 20 or 25 PSI IIRC.

i do about the same in my '97, but my tires say 35 psi so i do 36 front and 34 in the rear

[kevin_alvarez]

34 front, 32 rear thats what i do in my 97 ce

Low profile tires neew ALOT more pressure than normal high pro tires. I have 38-40psi in my tires.

[chewbaccamonkey]

well, my tires say 44 MAX, so I ought to be safe with the 36 front 34 rear?

I just like the sound of it. Try it for a few tanks of gas, see if it helps, see how it rides.

Currently running 30psi front and back.

Tires wear prematurely if they are over or under inflated. Tire pressure information will be found in the glove box.

im surprised no one said this yet, but its 30+ psi COLD!! dont forget, tire psi increases when you drive, so dont check it untill you left it parked for a couple hours, if i remember correctly, when i checked my tire pressure when it was hot, i was around the 40+ psi mark, and around 32+ psi cold
