aiyoo... thats the max pressure ur tyre can tahan la.. stupiak...

ur car tachometer write 240kph... ur drive 240kph all the way ka... stupiak..

just dont go over max la... take 60%-70% of max is enuff... save extra 30%-40% for extra weight, expansion from heat generated and other stuff la....

aiyoo...

The correct way to check your tire pressure is during cold time, i always check my tire pressure during i warm up my engine in the morning. 31psi for front & rear on my 2.0 inspira

Average just pump 31-33psi.

If u wan more comfort, then pump abit less. Will be better for braking too because more tyre surface contact with the road.

If u wan better fuel consumption, then pump abit more. Less tyre surface contact with road means less friction. But don't overpump, or it will compromise braking.

Normally if I'm pumping on a hot day or if I've driven to the petrol kiosk, then I'll pump a little bit more to compensate for expansion. So maybe abt 34-35psi.

er i mean you can inflate a lorry tyre to 32 psi and a bicycle tyre to 32 psi both have same pressure but amount of air is different

1. Never a nub question, I once saw a girl pump her Wira ...400, lucky I was right behind her and suggested maybe she want to pump a little less.

2. Pls let us know what car, general rule of thumb is around 220 for sedans as others have said.

3. If you are not sure, pump both front and rear same, some pump differently due to FF/FR, different tyre size, spirited driving, etc...

I saw one wira at petrol station, 4 indian guys in car keep pointing the machine says it's spoilt already, they take turns to pump the tyres... i look at it, they are trying to put 40 (or 48 i don't remember) psi ... they didn't ask me, so i didn't tell them lo ...
