I need to ask a favor...

Could someone with 205/55/16 tires from the factory, please tell me the correct inflation pressure on the tire label? I'm putting this size on my car (it came with 15's) and was wondering what the recommended pressure was for our cars.

Thanks!!

 

The type of car doesnt matter for the pressure. The pressure is determined by the tire itself. Every tire will be stamped on the side as to what the max pressure is. I usually tend to keep mine about 5 psi or so under what the max pressure is.

 

Actually the type of vehicle does matter. The suspension is generally designed around a specific model of tire at a certain inflation pressure to balance handling, wet traction and ride comfort. Check your door jamb on the driver's side.

 

yeah its does relay more on your car my buddy worked fore sears and they always inflated the tire to the doors specs even if a tire was good to 60 psi if the door said 30 that what it got

 

Mine came with the 195/60/15's from the factory, so that's what's listed on the tire label. Would the pressure (30 psi) be the same for the 16's?
