I reckon my signature answers that question nicely.

I also cop alot of flack about it too, but hey, I'm not the one paying for their tyres, so it doesn't bother me.

Please read the manual carefully, as the these manufacturers spent millions of dollars making sure it is perfect.....Now why are there so many problems with my car, when I follow the instructions to the letter?....Answer, majority rules round here


Lock me up and throw away the key because I'm a hoon....I got caught doing 59 in a 60 zone

Yep. 14.7psi (i think) is one bar or 100kpa. Base atmospheric pressure
