Tire Pressure

[whitety]

hi all

Need some advise ..

I'm currently on 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 configuration on my ride. As this profile setting is not within the configuration listed on the car listing of air pressure, thus, asking what should be the correct PSI to pump .. thanks in advance!

PS: Mine is 3 series GT F34 320i

Re: Tire Pressure

You won't go wrong with 35 psi

So low profile tire doesn't need higher pressure?

I am on the same tire setup but mine is MSport suspension. IMHO it is good to match tire pressure to your suspension. I am currently on 260kpa front and 290 kpa rear. If you find 260 too hard, then try lower to 250. My Fren pump 240/270. I am on N2 which tend to ride harder. If you used compressed air, then adjust accordingly.

No. It has to do with load index of your previous tyre vs current tyre?

What's your current tyre?

Mine is even lower profile than yours with 20" rims but I find 35 psi is just nice.

250 front and rear best

Re: Tire Pressure

I pump 36 psi front, 43 rear on the assumption that I always have a full load when most time only 2 of us in car. Think the manual recommend front-rear diff of at least 3 psi. Notice 36 psi for front wheel give a good feel vs when pressure drop, more effort needed to make u-turn.

Re: Tire Pressure

I use 41 /42 f/r config ...

If pressure below 38 then no punch ....
