i've got the same size tyres but mine are nankangs, i run about 30psi in winter and bout 32 in summer, it should be round about the 30 mark anyway, check the instruction book with your car and it'll tell u!

which is another way of saying 29 to 30psi, when 1 bar roughly = 14psi :D

i work in it too, but only when it's at pressures from 50 to 232 bar :D

good idea to get them right - now the rain's eased i'm going down to check mine out, as a friend's dad (always a good source :roll:) says dodgy pressure in one tyre might be the reason i had a little (non-damage) incident yesterday... quite possibly the new tyre the garage put on when it was last in? could also explain the cockeyed handling of late maybe.
