i've been searching around but havent found an answer, i just want to know whats the best tire preasure to run for a 195 50 15 tire(currently running 35psi)

 

Whatever's in the manual. I think what you have is fine.

 

well it's an aftermarket wheel setup that's why i was double checking, thanx

 

for your tires 32psi is recommended. 3psi is no big deal though.

 

Yuhp your good man

 

what brand of tire, I noticed on falken zeix 512s they seem to like 35-36psi better than 32, my kumhos feel like rocks at 35 and great a 32

 

falken ziex ze 912

 

I ran my falken's between 32-35psi.

 

sounds good

 

I say keep it at 35 and watch for wear in the center of the tire or if it seems to lose traction in the wet easily drop it down to recommended pressure and re assess

 

I work in a tire shop and put 35 in tires all day long. Like the others I'd say 32-35 is a good psi to be running

 

it is dependent on the weight of the car as specified in the owner's manual. just because the tire profile and wheels are different, doesn't change the weight specifications of the tires.

 

on mine is like 42 max so i do like 38

 

i bet your tires go bald easily.

 

This is correct.

Always use the manufacturer's recommended pressure as a starting point, and adjust in small increments based on wear and driver preference (assuming the driver is knowledgeable enough to make that call).

 

I run on stock 13" tires inflated to 36 psi as recommended on the sidewall.

 

42 max posted on the tire? this means after 42 psi, it will fail (explode). Read my previous explanation

 

Sidewalls don't have a recommendation for pressure.

They have a max pressure the tire has been tested to be capable of holding when run at the max weight load they are rated for.

Running tires at their max pressure will generally result in uneven wear (center section wears faster), increased stopping distances, and reduced comfort, though they will be a little more resistant to hydroplaning.

 

When I had those falken ziex's, I ran 35psi. I tried 30 and 38, but it just didn't grip as well in the corners, and I never got uneven wear at 35, so that's what I would reccomend.

 

Since it's getting colder, I'd recommend 35 instead of 32, that way when the temp does fall, you won't have to keep getting your tires aired up when the pressure falls.

 

interesting info......

 

Interesting info

 

good info, think i'm gonna keep it at 35psi

 

I keep the civic pressure at 34f,35r and the prelude at 36 all round. This is through many thousands of kms of driving and experimentation. This is what I find works best for me and my driving habits, experiment a bit and find out what works best for your preference.
