hi, i recently noticed that the stocky tyres that i have on were running flat, and as this was the first time that i had to put air in them. .i didnt know how much i should have inside there.
i was just wondering would anyone be able to advise me how much PSI i should have inside 185/60/14's?


i had a set of 205/55/16's on a previous car and i was told that they had 38psi inside them?? so i thought it would be a little higher than that.

please correct me on the 38psi figure if i have that wrong.
it would greatly be appreciated.

thank you

like 32,33 psi in the 185/60/14

38 is pretty high still ( i think )
i've got 205/45/16s and i put like 35 max.

check your door sill for the recommended tyre pressures?

or even better , there should the recommended PSI (max) on the SIDEWALL of each tyre. Look !

for 14" running on a light car such as a jazz or civics I would put 34 front 32 rear. Around there is good enough, another thread put to rest.

which is why most if not all analog or digital pumps have both psi and kpa ratings on them
