Quoting: Anonymous Coward 997661Open your car door. There is a sticker on the driver's side door. Look for it. It lists the proper PSI for your car's tires. Um. No. IF the tires are no designed to hold 55 psi I wouldn't put that kind of pressure in them. The tires are a better source for this than anything in the car. Tires can change. The stickers don't. |

Quoting: Question 997684Fill them to 35PSI then drive at least 20 miles, to get them to the highest operating pressure, measure the pressure again. If with the expansion caused by heat, your tires pressure does not exceed 44psi then you have the correct pressure in your tires. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 995675 Canada 06/09/2010 08:58 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It also depends on the temperature outside. :) Quoting: Anonymous Coward 757124Actually the temperature range. At low temperature the internal pressure goes down and at high temperature it goes up. The pressure in the tire is set when it is filled relative to the ambient temperature. So if it is very cold when it is filled to 35psi, then the outside temperature goes up very high, the pressure will increase. So the difference between the filling temperature and measuring temperature needs to be taken into account when reading the max pressure in the tire. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 993996 United States 06/09/2010 09:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | almost all regular road tires will say 35psi thats fine, but you will get faster tire wear and less mpg you can pick up 1-3 mpg by running slightly more pressure. I usually run 42psi front, 40psi rear done this for years, tires last forever. Anything over 42psi is a bit bumpy i used to have low profile yokohama's that needed 55psi |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 769161 China 06/09/2010 09:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ok. So following the logic of the majority of you, if the tire says max psi 40, and the sticker says inflate to 44 (hypothetically speaking), you're going to go inflate to 44. Well done! How about check both and use best judgement? |
