for every inch larger u are meant to increase 1.5psi

I use 30 all around, its what my tyre fitter mate said he uses...

I havent checked mine since I bought the car 3ish months ago..... think I will check them tonight and put them at 32 al round :D

i use 34 front 32 rear cos thats what my manual suggests for motorway driving which i do a fair bit of.

having a slightly lower pressure on the back helps the back end grip better in the wet. More tyre on the road. Having higher pressure on front is a must because of the engine weight and braking forces.

Yes for a Corsa B, 35 on the front and 29 on the back seems best.

omg, THE TYRE PRESSURE SHOULD BE THE SAME AS THE STANDARD TYRE PRESSURE, u cant ask people of here cos it depends what sort of driving you do etc.. refere to ure drivers manual which will give you the correct pressure for your sort of driving and load in the car. its the same no matter wat tyres u have.

id say around 30-32

if u go to an air machine there is usually a chart on the wall with recommended tyre pressures look for somethin close to ure tyre size and car model.

whenever i do mine i just put anything between 28 and 30 all round and thats with 215/35/18

You can have a look on here, these loads info on tyres and stuff.

the reason i'm sceptical is that my dad's porsche the rear tyres are 265/35, so thats 91mm profile, mine are 205/40 so mine are 82mm profile.

The reccomended pressure for his tyres are 45psi in the rear

tyre manufacturer website?

Is there anywhere i can go to find a reccomended pressure?

I am running 32psi in both front and back on mine (same tyre size).

Wot pressure should i have in my tyres, they are 205/40/17 on a Corsa C.
