Tyre pressure

Otto · Sep 5, 2008

Hello group
Can anyone recommend the right tyre pressures for my 110 300TDi, I've recently had new boost alloys fitted, and the tyres don't look as inflated as when I had the old steel wheels on, I'm on a 250 mile trek to Edinburgh in the morning and would really appreciate it if I was running at the correct pressures front & rear.

Current tyres: - Colway C-Trax AT's 235-85-R16

Thanks in advance, Otto

32 a corner should do the trick!

Ah run 35 on the fronts and 42 on the back with me 235's

Thanks guys, although the pressure difference is quite major. I seem to remember the rear ones at about 40'ish. Any advances on 40'ish!
Regards
Otto

The proper recomended pressures are 28 front laden/unladen and 48 rear laden/unladen. It's kind of a bit of trial and error and settle with what ye're happy with

agree with trial and error

on my 90 i ran with 28 on the front and 35 on the rear.
i then ran with 30 on the front for a week and then back to 28 for the last few days

imho it feel more secure at 28, the steering is lighter at 30 but if you have to do a bit of heavy breaking without ABS i felt the tyres gripped better and had more 'feel' at 28.

but this is just my opinion

what would you guys suggest for a loaded 90? just wondering if i should up mine when i go to Morocco. currently running 35's all round. maybe up the backs to 42?
