Tyre Pressures


Bramble111s

Recommended Posts

Never really been interested overly in tyre pressure, but since buying a tyre pressure gauge, arrived this morning, I am now wondering....

 

Toyo T1-S all round

 

Fronts measured at 22 and 19.5

Rears measured at 24 and 23.5

 

Gauge should be accurate to within 1 PSI

 

Obviously the fronts seem a little far apart, but is this about what they should be?

 

Bearing in mind that I have just had a service and the pressures should have been set by the garage on Tuesday...

Toyos need running a little higher and are sensitive to pressure. I ran 24/28 as opposed to 23/26 on other brands due to side wall flex. Apparently the Toyo R's are a little better.

 

Experiment with them as they can make a big difference.

With T1-S I ran 25/27 and sometimes 24/26 - weather dependant.

 

T1-R are a lot better, i run at 23/25 and there is noticeably less flex.

 

If you can get the T1-S warm and get over the fact that the flex is there you can run them a lot lower.. but experiment to be sure.
