Tyre pressures?

(1/1)

Andy.:
I've got some Good Years MTR's fitted 225/75's what pressure should they be  :?:

There is a reading on the side wall of each tyre, is this the correct running pressure  :?:

Cheers.

muddyweb:
The reading on the sidewall is normally the maximum pressure.

Start with the recommended pressures for the vehicle.

A good test for your vehicle is to draw a thick line across each tyre in chalk, then drive down the road a couple of hundred metres.  (on a dry day)

You should see fairly quickly if they are over or under-inflated by how the chalk wears off.  It should wear evenly across the tread ideally.

Cheers Tim, will check out manual tonight.

Nice tip too, will have to try that one  :wink:
