i think that figure isn't complete, usually ends with 84V, that number is quite crucial for tyre pressure

tat is for the loading index and speed index la... duh... 94 means around 600kg for 1 tire if not mistaken, so in total ur 4 tires should be able to withstand 2000 over kg of weight... then V should be not more than 240km/h limit...

Up to you. More pressure equals bumpier ride and less grip but save fuel a bit and vice versa. Just don't go pump over 300.

Just don't go pump over 300. each have has their own recommended spec already so depends... now mostly recommended is around 32~34 PSI for the front and 30~32 PSI at the rear... so read ur manual or see if there is any sticker at ur B Pillar after u open ur door... some car it might be noted on the fuel cover... |
