hi all
got some cesaro wheels fitted with some 195/45/15 tyres what pressure should they be at?
Cheers
have a look at a corsa b on the tyre charts at the garage....
i'm guessing 26psi front, 30psi rear
just don't do what a lad at work did. he looked at the sidewall & it said do not exceed 52psi, so he put 51 in & it handled like a spinning top

i would of said the oposite way to mowgli 30-32 front 26-28 rear
would put more in the front rather than the rear due to extra weight over that axle
iirc 30/26 is recomended for an rs turbo and they run 195 50 15 as standard so should be about right
can't go wrong with 30 all round

Nova has a xe in it if that makes a diffrence?
christ!!!! are you lot tyre fitters or something......30psi all round.... the biggest cause of crap handling in the country.....
actually try a few pressures and see what you like the most
if you can notice the difference between 28 and 30 when driving then im impressed lol
whats the point of spending loads of money putting a decent engine in, decent suspension & tyres and then just sticking 30 psi in all round?
i keep saying that the tyres are the most important part of a car, and owning a decent tyre gauge is a must.
28-30 up front
I run 24-26 on the rear

because its just an everyday road car that you are not gonna notice the difference in, plus its a pain in the **** having to change the pressures all the time depending on the load your carrying so **** it!! 30 all job done
I always put my fronts at 32 and the rears at 28/30.
Fine for everyday driving/tyre life.

i always put 30 psi all round no matter what car or size, its lose enough for any car. theyre mainly 28 - 32 anyway.

well i like to break traction on the back so i have 34psi on the back and 28 on the front but then i like the way it feels but just driving around normaly i just use 30 all round as it feels nice to drive like that. so IMO it depends what you like the feel of and what you want your tyre's for. higher the psi the easyer to break traction and vise versa but then also you have to keep in mind the tread on the road. if the tyre's are to low they will just get destroyed.
32 for economy FTW. I managed 35mpg from my V6 when I put the tyres up to 32 lol. Mind you, having big tyres narrows the usable range of pressure.
For all round goodness I'd aim about 28-30 though. Bear in mind most of those air pumps you get at supermarchéts and petrol stations are horribly innacurate, I just use them to make sure my pressures match across axles.
depends on car:roll:its safe to assume that on a nova forum we mean novas :wtf:
I've always put 30 in everything..
Let mine down a little for track.

38psi at the front, 35psi at the back according to the machine at sainsburys. Any less and the car feels spongy and the tyres look flat.
