I'm running 32 front on 225's and 34 rear on 255's on 18". Just seams to run better. Would have thought about 32 psi would be about right? Others may know better.

Thanks for your reply Andy I guess ,30 psi will be ok as my tyres are smaller.
Thanks
I suppose it's just a case of looking out for uneven tyre wear. Sounds about right though. Standard wheels and tyres?

Recommended tyre pressure is on a plate on the inside of drivers door frame which is a good guide to start with

Agreed - on your tyre size and model the recommended pressure is 2 bar (29psi) all around.

The plate on the drivers door shows 2.1/2.4 bar which is approx 31/35 PSI for your tyre size. I have always used the recommended pressures with no problems :)
