i pump different tyre pressure on the front and back.. the inside of the fuel tank lid has the specifications .. and car behaves very well...

[Guest io5885]

Mine tayar is 225/45/17.

front/ rear - 220/240.

slightly more at the rear as its RWD.

[Guest tsktsk]

c180k 1.6L, stock 17" tires

front/ rear = 240/ 245 kpa

:becky::becky::becky:This is great informaton. Thanks guys!!!!

[Guest tzehou]

For me, I pump all tires 250 for my c-class sedan and c-coupe. So far works for me. Every month go pump once. When i measure at month end, the pressure is about 210.

Your traction/ grd contact re on min. and pls be v careful during wet condit'n bro!

Chiaster, hve you double cfm the max. psi on your set of tires? Some comes w warning on the tire pressure guide etc...:whistle:

bro, actually... during wet conditions, it is better to have higher pressure in the tyres because it "convexes" the ground contact so as to cut through water better... on dry surfaces and for maximum grip, tyre pressure should be lower so that you get more of the rubber's surface in contact... having said that, i have had no problems in the dry or wet with this tyre pressure... :bounce: oh, i am on CSC3 and i remember seeing that the max pressure is something like 50 and up... will go take a look again and let you know, bro... :whistle:

[Guest mulderang]

for a c class on stock 17 tyres use what pressure, i haven pump in 3 months......

[Guest io5885]

For a start, u can try 220kpa / 32 PSI for all 4 tires.

then monitor ur handling, cornering, pick up n fuel consumption and adjust from there.

For me, i follow Doc jtang recommendation of +20kpa for rear tires cos of fuel economy n RWD.

i used to be on 225/245 for 225/45/17 BS-050A.

Now on 220/240 for 225/45/17 BS-S001. (harder sidewall)

diff tayar diff spec, diff characteristics.

some harder sidewall, some softer.

some drivers like sharp response, my dad likes soft bounce when over humps.

Play around with d tire pressure to suit your taste. :smile:

[Guest mulderang]

Thanks Bro will try it when i am free

sorry to dig out this old thread but was searching for some anwsers...

After i changed my tires from 17' to 18', i received message saying "check tire pressure".

Is it because is a new set up and the system have not adjust to the new size?

Or what? Anyone encounter this when upgrading your tire?

U need to reset yr tyres pressure from instrument cluster. Select Service menu & look for Tyre pressure, click YES to reset pressure.

[Guest sapporobier]

My 17' all 4 tyres pump 260. My drive feels Ok during wet or dry condition.

[Guest oshioyi]

Silly question but when you drive to the petrol station, I'm assuming the tires will be hot? How long to cool down in order to pump air?
