Thank you so much. I’m an older lady and I had no idea without my manual. Thanks to you I now know how to correctly add air to my tires. Many blessings and stay safe and healthy
👍😊
Thank you so much. I just put too much air in my tire😩 I should have checked first but I am thankful moving forward for the REST of my life, lol.
👍😊
Thanks bud, that's exactly what I needed to know. Cheers to you and yours!
👍😊
For anyone reading this; while his explanation is perfectly acceptable it isn't the best possible. You can almost certainly get better performance, longer life and more saftey for your particular use.
What?
I always look at the tire's maximum cold PSI rating and set it at that. air stabilizes the tire and the lower you go the more slop you get. I set my tires at 50 psi and it definitely has more grip at that pressure. anything less than 40 PSI and my tires will spin through first gear. I've been doing it for decades with no problems..
Can't believe I have had multiple cars for decades and I am just learning this. For decades I have been thinking 32 was the correct psi for all my cars. Thx so much for explanation!!!
👍😃
I never knew what that sticker was for until today. Not forgetting it's written in Japanese. Thank you
I always thought it was on the driver side door but some mechanic told me 35 psi when it’s 29 psi thanks for the info!
Thanks so much.. smashing quick advise.. you gem!.. great video . First time I've heard someone mention this. .a handy tip, especially if you are in a new car, to the one you are used to, etc. Cheers ;)
Thank you!
Thankyou For All your help! Thorough and informative. God bless you. 💋 🤗
THANK YOU FOR THAT.
So what if you have a lifted truck and have bigger tires?
Thank you! 😊
Thank you so much!
This video was very helpful
🎉🎉 Thanks
You're awesome, man. Quick and to the point. Thanks!
Thank youuuuuu
👍😊
Ty good information
👍😊
Thank you 🙂
👍😊
Thanks i put maximum number showed on my tire incorrectly
👍😊
Their are sooooooooo many people that fill their tires that way you have no idea. I thought that`s what I`m supposed to do as well until I saw this video!
@@jamminjoe44 👍😊
I'v been working with tires ( install and etc, . . . ) for the last 35 years, and 29 is too low.
Obvious ! ! ❤❤
GO BLUE !
Nice info
Is it the same thing if you get brand set of wheels? I have new rims and tires on my car now do I still go by the labels on the door jam?
My pressures are in the refueling door
So, my tire pressure is supposed to be 34 for both front and rear tires. Is it ok to drive my vehicle if it's slightly under, like, say 32 psi?
@@luigi7781 Yes. Personally I prefer a little over than under.
I agree in full and have always used the rated pressure from door panel. What do you do if someone has the wrong sized tire on their car? Im guessing it depends if the tire is too big or too small but you would use something I between the door rating and below the max rating on tire, right?

A lot of self-proclaimed experts - and their fathers - insist that going by those vehicle placards results in "underinflated" tires. What is their reasoning?
Zickcermacity I have no idea. As long as the correct factory spec tire is on the vehicle that is the correct factory spec pressure. I am almost 60 years old and it’s never been an issue.
I agree. It's just that I'm getting lots of pushback from other drivers, and even mechanics: "Run em 5psi below max", " Go by the tire, not the car label", etc.
More seems to be better, nowadays. How do I dispel this myth?
Zickcermacity Absolutely not by the pressure on the tire! That is the fastest way to ruin the center of the tread on a tire. Just like if you under inflate them you’ll ruin the outer treads on the tire.
Perhaps we are having a hard time understanding each other: I know, and you know, not to inflate to the max on the tires.
My goal is to educate OTHERS not to do so, and to know where to seek the correct cold pressure for their specific vehicle.
Zickcermacity The correct cold tire pressure is the placard on each vehicle.
Yes, the tire placard has been in that position for many years. Maybe people need to read an owner manual for their car.
Thank You So Much for the Accurate , Brief & Clear Tutorial! Good God Blessed You Too! 🕯🌷🕊♥️🌍
👍😊
Thank you I did not know that info. I suspected that it wasn’t a good idea to inflate the tires to the max pressure amount that’s listed on the side of the tire. I just bought 4 new tires and when I got home I noticed that one of the tires was severely under inflated. I even wondered if it had a hole in it. It turns out the tire is fine and the shop just did a half baked job. I did the whole thing through Amazon and right off the bat before the tires were even installed I got the vibe from them that they felt like Amazon didn’t pay them enough to do the job.
If monitor your tire pressures once a month, keep your recommended pressure. If you plan on towing or carrying more weight, increase your tire pressures ahead of those times. The posted air pressures is the best compromise for safety foremost and then handling and tire wear.
If you are not carrying excess weight, you can go two or three pounds less than recommended, but it can affect handling and stability. The recommendation is a good compromise and will protect you and everyone around you. I try to stay at that pressure winter and summer.
Thank you!
Thanks so much. I never knew this until now. You are great and may the Lord bless you too
God bless you and your family
👍😃
Lord almighty! Thank you, I knew something was up, I got a "new to me" used car and I didn't feel as if it was to spec. Ill have to drop it down to 29.
Never used the B pillar on my Truck or Explorer. I have always run the max PSI on the tire. I buy nothing Michelin Defender LTX M/S but 70,000 mile tires and I get 70,000 miles every time. .
Heavier the car is, more pressure you need. If you wanna save gas ad 15 % more. Also if you have lower profile tires ad more pressure. Factory plate shows the most comfortable pressure. For racing also ad more pressure. My Astra should consume 4,2 liter per 100 km on highway but with 2,5 bar front and 2,4 bar rear i can go about 3,8 liter per 100 km. I have lightered my car about 150 kilos and chiptuned it. With full weight car i would use 2,6 front and 2,6 rear. This also depends on tires. If some one used 25 % pressure than in factor plate its fine as long as you have even tear wear.
Engine load is more at the front, do you think keeping 2 psi more in the fromt would be better? 32 front and 30 behind.
Thank you so much, beginning to think I was a red headed step child.
Thank you so very much for this video. I needed to know and understand this. I am a widow and I have a tire gauge and my tires have different pressure. I need to know what numbers on the gauge are the ones to go by. Is it the numbers in red or the ones in black?
Hi. Your gauge may show red for metric and black for psi units. There’s likely a “kPa” and “psi”. Use the psi numbers.
@@sammyday3341 OK THANK YOU SO MUCH. THIS HAS HELPED ME A LOT. GOD BLESS YOU
God bless you brother!! Thank you for the information!!.
Just a caveat… Audi tire pressure listed on the door is for the car at max capacity load…. There is a chart in the owners manual that decreases the tire pressure if there are 2 or less occupants. If you inflate the tires to the door pressure, they are over inflated and the car darts all over the road. Its crap that they dont mention it on the door. I would not have known except I aired up the tires on my SQ5 and R8V10 at the same time and then test drove them. I had to take out as much as 8lbs to get it correct. Good video.
Thank you!
Great information. Thank you so much.
Is the TPMS system on a 2006 Camry LE direct or indirect?
🙏🏻Thank you so much, so basic but yet so important idk 🤷♀️ why we’re not taught this just like being taught to put gas in & etc
👍😃
mine is 32 psi on the front wheels and 39 psi on the rear wheels. I drive a Chevy Cruze
What if you are not using stock tires? Should the chart still be followed?
You helped me more than my own father
Bless you man! Thanks for this info!
I usually go 10% more than the listed psi just to be safe. This way you are guaranteed to not go lower for a few months. I was told that this is totally safe. Thoughts ?
👍😃 You are spot on! I do the same thing.
So, if my tire air pressure reading is 32 when I check it using a tire gauge; I just add 3 PSI to it to total the 35 PSI?
32 psi is just fine especially driving around the city. I drive 2 to 3 psi lower than recommended. Less wear & tear on my car for daily City driving.
You are correct. Just keep adding until the gauge reads 35.
What if tire sizes been changed?
If someone has a higher psi let's say they added bigger rims and low pro tire, max tire psi is higher and tire pressure should be higher.
God bless you and thank you!!
I have recommended front 33 and rear 30, but always when I go to the service they make 37/35 and I curious why. Specially if you drive on highway in summer and see how your tire pressure goes up till 40 or so.
Yeah that’s really strange. You’ll have to ask them why?
Perfect, short, and easy . Thank you
👍😊
Thanks mate Simple and straight to the point
What if the vehicle isn’t driven much, sometimes for months. How often should the air be checked or does it need to be?
Check it every 3 months
Mine says 35psi on door jam, but tires say 51max. Huge discrepancy. Good info!
LOL, Max is the maximum capacity a tyre can handle, doesnt mean you put 51.
That's not a discrepancy. You're misinterpreting. One is a recommendation, with most likely safety (rather than drive ability, car noise, fuel economy and turning) being prioritised. The other advises what the safe maximum capacity is, not recommending what it should be at
My tire says 51 max and 30 cold temp. I put 35-37psi for best handling/driving experience.
That works only if u keep same size tires and rims 😉
Thank you!!!
I love learning stuff that I never knew before and I'm 50 years old. LOL!
Shawn Duffy 👍😊
U help me
Thank you for this video 🙏🏽
What if tire size has changed?
Y r the best!
What if the tire is not the original size for that vehicle
I have an E150 Ford van. But it's a conversion van with a lot of added weight that wasn't there from the factory. Wood cabinetry, automatic rear bench seat folds into a bed, 4 captains chairs, TV. Wouldn't that change the recommended PSI that's on the door? It says 41 PSI
Thanks you ❤
A friend of mine always goes +10 psi on all tires and has been doing that for years. On a set of Goodyear triple treads I never noticed uneven tread wear on his 2012 Honda Pilot since new, recently replaced tires due to a road hazard blowout . I never saw uneven tread wear, but you feel every bump and the suspension takes a beating. He also went +10 psi on his new, 2024 Toyota 4 Runner. I go +2 psi , high altitude, to allow for cold weather and making trips to lower altitude. Some tires I’ve seen max 35 psi on sidewall max load while others 50 psi, same load rating. Depends somewhat on # of plies. I’d follow mfg recommended pressure +2, just to give a little edge, or more as recommended by the mfg for load, as most tires leak a little and no one regularly checks them because of the crappy tire pressure monitoring systems installed on all new cars and trucks.
THE TIRE tells you the pressure. NOT the door jam....
I’m sorry, but you are incorrect. If you use the pressure on the tire, you will prematurely cause uneven, wear on the tire.
Yep. It'll either be there or in the manual.
It's often the best compromise and is a safe place. But, equally, you can alter them slightly to your preferences or needs, but I always start with the manufacturers recommended pressures. To be honest, they're usually pretty good recommendations.
I heard some tires actually require more than 35 just have to look at the weight on the sides....my old tires my mechanic told me fill to 40 said I had to much rubber on the ground.....I have new tires different car now don't kno how much air to put in these
Thnx dude, life saver
What if I'm not using the same tires my truck came with?
Are they the same size? Because only the tire will change if you have different rims on them. Then you are customizing your truck and that's kind of a gray area
theres a chart out there somewhere that shows u. but thats dependent on load weight and psi. but by now im pretty sure youve figured that out already
Thanks dad
Thank you so much I’m a do it yourself woman 🤣🤣🤣66 at that but I have to do what I got to do thank you again for sharing 😬👌
👍😊
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this great info. It's helped me a lot. God bless you brother ❤❤❤
Thank you sir
👍😊
So my truck is supposed to have 255/65/r17s on it and I put 245/ 60/r17s on it; how do I know what air pressure I should put in my tires?
That's fine stock tire stock air pressure what if you go with the 215 or a 225 then what do you do and it's a lower profile tire then what do you do and and you can't go over there pressure ever you can't have 32 in there really
Very informative video
Safe tire pressure put 32 psi in the morning cold tire. When driving in hot weather it will go up to 35 psi your still safe in the pressure.
Thank you so much!!
Great video thank you.
Thanks, So cold pressure is to check when car has sat all night ?
Yes
@@proclaimliberty2000 Thanks Neighbor !
35 psi to 40 is the way to go, on a cold tyre.
I appreciate this post. Thank you so much.
👍😊 You’re welcome Kristy!
Thank you!
Thanks for this. My light kept flashing and I was frustrated.
the suspension is rated for the air pressure that is stated on the door jamb.
Tire air pressure is tire specific. Not vehicle specific. The sticker on the piller is only intended to be used with factory installed tires, from the manufacturer. And it's a good idea to deflate by 10%, depending on terrain and winter conditions
Thanks for the info
Please don’t give bad info. Max tire pressure is on the tire. Going beyond the recommended on the vehicle can cause the tires to wear down faster.
What should the pressure be for a chevy cruze lt 2015
Exactly what I needed and to the point. Thank you 🙏
Sir good day! Many thanks for the helpful information. All the best and god bless.
👍😃
On cold tire or warm tire ?????
Cold
The tires have their designated psi…just air them 6 psi less
what is you buy better tires than your car calls for and the pressure is different, do you still follow the PSI on the car sticker?
The car manufacturer suggests a specific psi because it wants something simple and universal that works ok for every situation. So, stick to it. But depending on exactly how different this tire is, do your research to know what is best psi to run. I run mine 3 psi above my recommend. My car recommends 33. I run it at 36.
