Tyre Pressures

Featured Replies

Hi can someone help me.I have a fiesta titanium 1.6 petrol with bridgestone low profile tyres size 205/40/R17.What is the correct tyre pressure yours george.



It should say on the inside of the passenger side door. I have the 17"s aswell, I think its 28 PSI, but don't quote me on that.

Yes it is 28 psi

This should be stuck to the passenger door pillar.

I best put some air in mine have always but 28ish in as when I put more in ford said they were overinflated when it was serviced shows how much they know

This should be stuck to the passenger door pillar.

That should be there, but 3 door if you have 3 door model. Less weight, less PSI needed. 28 should do, also depends on how much weight there is in your car (inc the engine) - 1.6 should be 30PSI 1.4/1.25 28/29 ish.

31 on front & 26 on rear, that's probably why you were told they're overinflated Sam (rear at least anyway)

Probably yes as I always do them all the same (28psi)

I've always done 30-32psi on the 195/45 16's. I believe they changed the psi on the newer models. I've taken it to rapid fit ford a few times and they've never said anything.

@Dieselpig that must be the newer sticker as the 195/45/16's for the front where 26psi.

Don't know any different my 3 door was made in June 2011.

What are the side effects of over inflated tyres? If anyone knows

I actually just did a google and found out :P

This picture makes an interesting point:
