[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 365335, member: 4527"] .. and when pump air, all loads like passengers and stuffs in your boot must be out of the car because these added weights will over rate the tyre air pressure... true? no? Sometimes I wonder the B-pillar sticker guide was it meant for heated tyres because 36/40 psi seems to be on the high side and if I'm not wrong, there's a warning on the tyre wall that says MAX: 45psi. So when u pump to 40 psi when cool, once heated with load, you are near the max tolerable limit of the tyre.. :eek: isn't that dangerous?! A more comfortable (as in peace of mind) tyre pressure range for me is 28psi to 35psi. Occasionally my MPV is running 39psi due to the load especially during holidays. Unless RFT need to run harder in pressure.. but pump hard does not warrant slow wear, in fact it accelerate wear in the central tread. Better FC is confirm though. No wonder u can do low 11s in the per L/100km reading, which is pretty similar to my 4-potter.. or am I under pressure? as in under inflate?! :p [/QUOTE]
