Guys,

Whats the recommended tire pressure for 275/35/19?


Thanks,
Tony

 

The tire pressure is on the placard inside the drivers door.

 

I would have just called it a sticker

 

+1000 I dont know why these threads keep on being posted

 

i believe its 35psi when the tires are cold.

 

correct

 

Sometimes the ideal pressure for after market tires is not the same as the info on the placemat --ah placecard--ah sticker for the OEM tires. I kinda think maybe thats what tracting was getting at.

I will have to Search to make sure.

 

 

^^noob

 

EXACTLY...some tires require a 40-42psi. I'm not sure about the T1-R's.

 

I run 40 in my T1Rs ---Seem to do fine ---Grip,wear etc

 

I wasn't sure if the aftermarket tire was different.

The winter wheels and tire combo I recently bought from Discount Tire Direct came with 50 psi on each tire. I called DTD about the correct tire pressure and was told to go by the door sticker regardless of the tire. They said it has to do with the weight of the vehicle, regardless of the tire type.

 

Thanks man. Didn't know it was like that.

Toyo has excellent customer service. I called their CS line some time back about my larger-than-OEM TIRs and recommended pressure for Z's weight. A lady calmly took down all the information and a tech called a few minutes later with an answer. BTW, it was only off by 1 psi for the OEM GT rears, and identical to OEM for the fronts, even though they are 10mm wider!

 

I run mine at 35-37 all the time and after 20K, I have more center wear than the sides.... I suggest keeping them at 33-35.

 

35 PSI is a pat answer. Begin with 35 PSI. Watch for tread wear. Adjust tire pressure a couple of pounds as needed.

 

I am getting more confused by this thread.

 

Take everything with a grain of salt ----There are those that mearly repeat what they've heard from others, there are those that repeat what their Dad told them that he heard from HIS Dad. There are those that quess.
Then there are those that have flipped the finger to convention and have experimented with new ideas.
Consolidate replys and use them as a quide line. With tire pressure, best to talk with the guys that are out there tracking and Iv found in many cases its best to let ur fingers do the walking and talk face to face with the ones that have proven them selves.

 

The rule of thumb that I go with and heard from a suspension tunner in my area. He said that if you have larger or smaller rims then stock you shouldnt have the pressure that is recommended on the door. For every inch bigger the wheel is it should have 3 psi more and for every inch smaller it should be 3 psi less than what the door says. Thus on a 19" T1-R it should be somewhere in the neighboorhood of 38 psi. If you have 17 tire you should be somewhere around 32 psi. Obviously if you have a bigger tire you should have a higher psi in it then stock and conversly for a smaller tire. Hope that helps!!!

Best way to check is the look at the wear patterns on the tire!!!
