Good to know
- Use the pressure printed on the tire placard, usually on the driver’s door jamb, or in the owner’s manual. The number molded into the tire’s sidewall is its maximum, not the recommended pressure.
- Check pressure when the tires are cold, before driving or after the car has stood for a few hours.
