tyre pressure

[mat-nos]

is it normal to loose 5ish psi in around a week on the front tyres in this cold weather or do i have 2 slow punctures?? :-(

 

[DrR]

Slow puncture, mine rarely loose any.

All of mine are slightly lower than normal when I checked them this week. Assuming it's the weather.

 

[mat-nos]

hmmmmmmmm ill keep an eye on them before i get the tyre foam out lol
just seems funny that both fronts loose the same amount of psi after the same amount of time......

 

[DrR]

Don't use the foam!

Jusgt get a tyre place to check em out.

A 10degree drop in temp will lose you about 1psi. So that much is a bit much. Pump them up to normal, then monitor closely.

lol dont know what pressure they are ment to be....... not in my manual or on a sticker anywhere that ive seen??
just put 35psi front 30psi rear over the past 2 weeks in a 195/50/16

sound about right??

Personal choice. Not sure what the book says but I use 33 front and 31 rear

35 seems a bit extreme for the fronts... especially in this ice and snow.

I run 32f/30r, but like the curley one said its personal preference.
