Default wheel psi or car psi?

Hey H-t,

I might have a nub question but on my Falken Ziex ZE-912 they say to fill them up to 50 Psi, But idk to go with the tires or my car psi, on the driver side theres the specs and its says to 30 psi in the front and 20 psi in the back, In my ej6.


Follow car psi or the tire psi?

TIA!

Stickied at the top of this forum, where you'd have to be totally clueless to miss it, is a topic called

Forum Rules and FAQ - READ BEFORE POSTING

Open that topic, and scroll down to the question, "What air pressure should I use in my tires?"

Also, re-check the recommended pressures for your car, in the owner's manual or on the door jamb. I really doubt that they recommend 30 in the front but only 20 in the rear.

I go by what the cae specs say, I ran what the tires said 50psi and they started
wearing in the middle, that mean to much air. Fill them to the specs in the glove
box and watch for tire wear. good luck

The pressure listing on the side of the tire is the maximum pressure, not the recommended pressure.
