Your Tire Pressure

[leinahtan]

My figures:

Vehicle: Toyota Innova
Tire size: 205/65R15
Tire brand: Yokohama Aspec
Front pressure: 33 psi (loaded/unloaded)
Rear pressure: 33 psi (unloaded)
Rear pressure: 36 psi (loaded)

Note: Tire pressure figures on cold temperature recommended as per manual.

[geode]

front -> 30psi
rear -> 32psi

that's what my car manual (mazda familia) recommends for 195/55/15 spec tires. since those are my tire spec, i just followed :D

Digitals will never be as accurate as analogue, but considering our analogue gauges here are 100 pesos pieces of crap, yes, it's relatively accurate. The digital gauges at shell always give me consistent readings... that's when the tire pumps are working.

30-30 di ko naman load ng mabigat rav4

I own 3 types of gauges, 1 made in Japan in which a graduated rod comes out after detecting a pressure (maybe familiar to you as this is usually used in vulcanizing shops). My 2nd gauge (analogue type) made in Taiwan. My 3rd gauge (also an analogue type) made in Italy a type in which you can monitor tire pressure from a dial attached to a nozzle. Pulling the trigger inflates, pushing a release button deflates. This type is widely used in auto dealer service bays. Having these three types has no way for me to have inaccurate tire pressure. Well, of course, tires pressures are accurately obtained in the morning while air temperature is still cold. Tire pressure obtained during hot weather temperature are erratic due to air expansion.

What? Hot weather will not give you erratic readings! Assuming temperature remains constant, your readings will remain constant. I believe there is a misunderstanding of some basic laws of physics here.

Everything else remaining the same, when temperature rises, so does the pressure of gas. But that doesn't mean taking tire pressures at higher temperatures will result in erratic readings!

Pressure readings should be taken when the tires (not the air) are cold, that is, left standing still after a few hours of driving. The normal driving tire temperatures are significantly higher than your parking temperatures.

190 e with 215/40/17= 30 all around
'96 Surf/4runner with 215/70/16= 35 fronts, 40 rears

[benchph1]

eversince i bring our cars to our friendly shell gas station and have the tire pressure checked there. 30 psi for our cars and 35 psi for our van. then i give 5 pesos to the attendant.

32 para safe, & dapat magdala ng sariling gauge...how many times kyo chek ng tire pressure? weekly b? npansin ko pag after every 2 weeks mdyo marami na nababwas...

[charmander]

questions:

1. san po ba nakakabili ng high quality gauges?

2. ok lang ba hindi mag tip sa mga gas boys after magpahangin? :D

32-33psi cold on all fours- sedan
35psi cold on all fours - Frontier

It is recommended to buy a good tire gauge, the thing is i don't know what brand to buy and where (any recommendations?).

[warbird]

32 psi on 4 tires
Bridgestone H/T 255/70/16

[rlp1099]

nangkang 265/60 18

32 on all 4 cold ones

spare should be 5-10lbs higher kasi we often forget to inflate them

[acenie]

i use 32 psi on all 4 tires for my L300 Van, ok lang ba to.
kasi yung nakalagay sa door niya is 35psi, pero kung 35psi parang matagtag ang riding. any comments.

[hotwheels]

honda city 27/27 psi- loaded with nitrogen air when I changed tire early this month. good handling experience.

mits adv 27/37 psi - normal air

[BlueBimmer]

Gen1 CRV - 28psi all around 205/70r15 stock tires, 32 psi for the 245/50r18 rims
E36 320i - 30psi all around, 205/40r17

[flakez]

30 on all tires. tapos mga 2x a week, saka basta pag dumadaan ako sa shell lagi ko na rin chinecheck.

ok lang ba ung every other day na check ng pressure? o masyado ng overkill?

salamat

[mini_macky]

32 psi all around, 215/40/17 tires :D

[dx8976]

pressure recommended on door is 33/33 for 215/65/15.
how would this translate to 225/65/16 tires?

am currently running 30 psi. is this about right?

[niky]

Should be the same. But why are they so much bigger? Don't they rub? Or is it an SUV?
