    Wilmslow type of question... tyre pressures

    Morning All,

    I have Wilmslooooooooooooooooooow type of question for the congregation....

    although I consider myself car savvy, this one has left me puzzled,

    the big datsun has tyres...

    225, 65, r17 pirelli scorpion winter tyres

    no where on the tyres is it written what pressure they should be

    and as I just put the winter tyres on they look a bit saggy,

    what pressure should i put in them and how can I find this out ?

    thanks,

    Milan.

      thanks spacecadet, that site is in psi, I need the metric version what ever that is for euroland garages

      basically, goodwork, but you need to go that little extra

      thanks,

      Milan.

        Milan, pucker up your lips, go down on bended knee and blow on the valve until you pass out. Rinse and repeat for each tyre.

        Sorteeed!

            I didn't think those horse & cart things they have in Eastern Europe needed tyres?

                for those incapable of clicking links and doing the math themselves..

                for 225, 65, r17 pirelli scorpion tyres

                the max inflated pressure should be

                44psi = 3.033688 bar or 3.09 kg_per_cm2

                just let me know when your ready to goto the loo and i'll wipe your arse for you aswell

                    he'll probably need it in kg/m2
