My wira 1.5GLI is pump 210 kpa for 13" inches tyre, i had change to 15" tyre last few weeks.
Then how many kpa is suitable for my current 195/50/15 tyre?

My Saga 15" I pump 280kpa.... my dad's Nissan Livina 240kpa.... I also dunno which 1 is correct or wrong rclxub.gif .... Maybe both also wrong tongue.gif Juz make sure not 2 pump 2 hard, cuz may loose traction n not 2 soft cuz may cause wear n tear faster nod.gif

:no: Over-inflation causes uneven tire wear too. Best is to be fairly within your car/tire manufacturer recommended pressure.

280 is too much la bro ... normally 15 inch pumped around 210 - 220 is the best already ...if want to go more .. 10% of it would be the safe spot ..

or else your tyre would end up
