Hi it may sound stupid but does anyone know what the tyre pressure should be for my car.
I have a 2000 Furio with BK Alloys and the tyres are 195/45/15.
I currently have 33 on the front and 29 at the back as this is what a mate told me but dont know if this is right.
Thanks.

30 all round should be best iirc,that what i use on mine same size wheels etc
but try some different pressures and see astick around the 30ish mark with a no more then +- 3degree tolerence
cold temps for road tyres btw

on standard vtr rims with michy-pilot tyres its 2.5 bar on the front, 2.2 on the back IIRC. I have a sticker where the colour-code is, don't know if thats the same for all saxos though?
Can't see 15's being that much different :)

to put the above post in PSI its front 2.5bar=36PSI back 2.2bar=32PSI
thats the standard on VTR rims cant go far wrong with 33 and 30 though

i run 34 front 32 rear. seems to be a good balance of grip, mpg, and tyre wear.
