I want to know the recommended tyre pressures for my car.?

Question

Its a 1997 Renault Megane Scenic 1.6. I want to know the fully laden and 2 occupants pressures as these are the 2 I use most. I would prefer this in PSI form, not bar. Thanks

Answer 1

The psi listed only is listed as to what the maximum weight the tire will carry at that pressure. It is usually higher than what you would actually use. The best place to look is on the drivers door post or in the owners manual. A WAG would be around 32-35 psi. The air holds up the car. The tire is only a container for the air and/or means of traction, therfore the correct amount is needed.

Answer 2

if you look on the tire. its in small print and says the psi for the tire. there are too many different tires to give you an exact amount. the psi is located around the rim, u might have trouble seeing it unless u are on ur hands and knees

Answer 3

look in the owners manual or call a renault service agent, the pressures on the sidewalls are only a general guide, the manufacturers pressure is the optimum

Answer 4

In the U.K. next to the thing you use to put air in your tyres there is a list of recommended pressures different cars sorry if you live in the U.S. cause then I cannot help you

Answer 5

try a petrol station some have a full chart on recommended Tyre pressure laden and unladen

Answer 6

check on your tire, it will say a minimum and maximum PSI value for your car. most cars are from 40-60 but all tires are different so check them.

Answer 7

The inside of the drivers door has a sticker that says what is reccomended.

Answer 8

It'll be written in plain language on the side walls...

Answer 9

I got to say thanks for these answers....
