Hi All
I'm new here, so Hello!
I've just bought a LLE multivan which has non standard alloys fitted. The tyre sizes are 225/50/16 and 245/45/16 for front and rear respectively.
Does anyone know what sort of tyre pressures I ought to be running?
Any help much appreciated as I've got no idea what they ought to be.
Thanks for any help
Keith

Worked well for me when I changed my wheels

Thanks for that - any idea on what the front and rear axle weights are for my van? It's a 2.1 manual
Thanks

Just had a look around and have found the limits are 1200/1300 kgs for front and rear - is this correct?
