Tyre pressures 255/35/20

[SMW]

Can anyone please tell me what the tyre pressure should be for Pirelli 225/35 r20 97y. I believe they should be 42 psi front and 43 psi back?? Many thanks in advance

I doubt 225 35 20 is a particularly suitable size for a Transporter and I know 97 load rating isn't up to the job.

What tyres would you recommend please?

 

[Gavinda]

What weight rating is your van T28, T30 or T32?
What width are the wheels you have?

I put 39psi in mine as tyre says no more than 40psi. I’ve just changed mine to 255/40/20 not sure what to put in them when I need to next?

Where do I find this information? Sorry for being a biff!!

Hi, I’m looking to get optimum tyre pressure for my T28 with 255/35ZR20 102W XLs on it. It’s used as a camper and I bought it with the tyres set at 52PSI, which seems a little high. I’ve taken them down to 46PSI but would appreciate any pointers. Thanks.

I'm using 255/40 on a camper, running at 36-37PSI. I tried it at 38 but was getting some tyre centre wear.

P.S. 52!!!! WOW!

I’m running 255/35/20 102 on 20x9s. Says the max pressure is 50. I run then at 45psi at the moment as any less and the front wheels just looked a bit low. 1000 miles in and seems ok so far
