My tyres (245/55) were originally inflated to 32/32 (F/R) on delivery. Checked on the reference sticker in the fuel flap and this seems to be the setting for > 130MPH + 5 adults with luggage.

The correct setting for < 130MPH + 3 adults is 29/30 (F/R). Can anyone else with a similar setup verify these figures?

Seems a bit low on rear at 130+5??

Mine is 29/30 for normal, and 32/38 for 130mph +5.
 
Brian thats quite interesting, I have my 16's at 32F and 34R, what would you recommend? Thanks.

Sounds OK unless you fill the back with the heavy stuff, then I would push them up to 36/38 at the back.
 
Thank Brian I will heed your advice. :bannana: :bannana:
