should say on the side of the tyres you get mate if it says 32 psi for example only pump it up to about 26-28 psi you need to allow for the temp of the tyres temp gets hot air expands if you pump up to the max pressure youll just at risk of having a blow out lol unlucky but could happen Razz

If you drive fast down back roads etc on the other hand only pump up to about 23 psi

On the side of the tyre it will state the MAXIMUM safe working pressure, in normal running you wont be anywhere near this figure.

Tyre pressures should be set when the tyre is cold / stood overnight.

23 psi is far to low a pressure for a 206, you risk overheating the tyre & causing a blow out not to mention the p**s poor handling & uneven tyre wear it will cause.

33 psi front & rear will be idea.

Agreed! 23 is no where near enough pressure

why do so many people think the MAXIMUM pressure on the sidewall is the correct pressure to pump the tyre up to. it even says "MAXIMUM" next to the value, and it will be something stupid like 60psi, dont pump your tyre up this hard lol.

I run 32 front, 30 rear. (fronts heavier because of the engine lol)

Spacer saver idiots are just as bad.

Most space savers need to run at 50 / 60 psi, what do most idiots do, they stick 30 psi in them like the rest of there tyres Rolling Eyes

If only the RTFI on the space saver wheel / tyre Laughing
