  After watching your video I checked mine and found I was putting in the wrong pressure and my tyres were a different size and checking that my pressure was 5lb lower than it should be. Thanks for your video.

  I always follow the recommended psi and rotate every 6k miles. My tires wear evenly and last longer than the expected life.

  I aired up my Pilot to 35 PSI in the coldest day. It gets up to 39 PSI in the summer.  Overall, the Pilot gets 23 MPG commuting in Northern VA near DC.

  Front 30 to 33 psi is good at back 35 to 38 is good and more stable and good fuel economy tested almost 25 yrs driving

  For a 1964 Mercedes-Benz 220S (W111), the recommended tyre pressure generally ranges between 26 and 32 PSI (pounds per square inch) depending on load conditions and tyre type.<br><br> &nbsp; &nbsp;Normal Driving (Light Load): Approximately 26–28 PSI for both front and rear is standard for optimal comfort.<br> &nbsp; &nbsp;High Speed or Full Load: Increased to 30–32 PSI to handle extra weight and prevent excessive sidewall flexing.

  My European Specialty mechanics shop and my tire shop both set all tires routinely at 44, which is on the diver&apos;s door jamb for maximum load. 44PSI &nbsp;in 19&quot; lower profile run-flats, which are OE on the Sport Trim Mercedes GLA250 4matic, beats the car to death. &nbsp;The sticker on the fuel door says 35 front and 32 rear for normal load. &nbsp;I switched to the standard trim 18 inch wheels and mounted 225/55 XL instead of recomended 235/50, and inflate to 38 front and 34 rear. &nbsp;It still handles sharply, but the ride is now a proper luxury sport hatch ride.

  Good video; I&apos;ve done a lot of research on this and the video is dead on. One topic should be added: some recommendations are to over inflate by 1 or 2 psi in the fall in anticipation of dropping temperatures in the weeks ahead - and the reverse in spring. Honda explicitly recommends against this because the newer TPMS, which captures the temperature when reset, assume you are using the door sticker settings. Besides, if you are checking as frequently as you should, it isn&apos;t necessary.

  30-35 psi has been around for 60 years and only the ones for big off road tires higher

  At 25⁰C, max tire pressure on tire wall less 10%-15% is my sweet spot. This way I don&apos;t adjust the pressure during winter or summer season.

  My BMW 320D Xdrive Msport, on the door says 32/35. I run 33/36 I carry a bicycle stirup pump in the boot ..<br>Even wear across the tyre. Run flats. I check pressures every other day, and before road trips, then check every day on the trip with my electronic tyre pressure gauge.
