Title: Tyre Pressures.
Post by: Rotorboy65 on February 14, 2004, 10:14:19 AM
Just wondering if anyone would know the best tyre pressures, been driving long distances last week and found the ride a bit bumpy and was wondering what the best pressure set up would be. I have 265/35/18 rear and 235/40/18 front, I realise with the lower profiles the ride is going too be a bit harder, but when I had the tyres fitted recently I left them at the pressure that the fitters put in so not really sure if this is the best handleing set up. Can ony one advice cheers Leigh.
