It says it on the tire... and it's also different for different tires.

the # on the tire is the MAX the tire can take. usually you will want to go with the recomended psi from the car manufacture. iam a tech at a local lexus dealer and when we get a car with aftermarket rims, we will usually go with 5psi less than the max on the tire.

dose your car/rims have the tpw sensors?

It does not have sensors. All it said was MAX 55 psi but that seems a little high. What you think?

ya that would be a bit much, try 40. that should be good. keep in mind that the 55psi is the max so if you were to put 55 in it now(cold)when you go out and drive the psi will increase as the tire heats up and you could have a tire failure so go with a lower amount so you will have some leeway. 40 should be just fine.

You ALWAYS go with the rec psi for the VEHICLE.....as stated before the number on the tire is the MAX pressure for the tire....most vehicle will be between 32-35 psi...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Thats what I put was around 32 and it looks about right. Should i keep it there?

on my car i go with 35. my wheel/tire combo is a little different though... lol

i would go with 40....the ride will be harsh, but i think it's a little safer with a low profile

Look at the label on the inside of the drivers side door jab and it will tell you want your vehicle requires and go by that for optimal performance......//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

It don't matter, you always inflate to the vehicle's spec....I do this on a daily basis, it don't matter if they are 15" factory tires or 30" aftermarket's..//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
