Tyre Pressures

[Howard]

hi chaps,

I'm running 17inch wheels 225/45 profile tyres on a normal 230ce , anone got any idea of the correct tyre pressures for front and rear ? usually with just me in it, occasionally the girlfriend but no one ever rides in the back !!!

Check inside your fuel flap.

Theoretically, the same pressures apply regardless of the size of wheel fitted - however in practice there may be some benefit to altering the pressures with lower profile rims.

This has been discussed . . . somewhere - try a search.

OK cool, i wasn't sure, because i know that they are arent the standard wheels that it came with when it was new.

I didnt realise that the pressures stay the same regardless of size/profile, you learn something new every day !!

Many thanks
