Not sure if Canadian cars are the same, but vehicles in the US come with a sticker in the driver's door jam that recommends the optimal tire pressures. I believe those figures are what the tire pressure monitoring systems goes by.Question, what should the tire pressure be of my car? The low pressure light came on with the cold weather and yep, the tries were down to just over 25 psi. Google suggests 35 to 40 psi for my vehicle while the manufacturer says a minimum of 30 psi.
The odd thing is, google claims 35 psi has better fuel economy while 40 psi provides a smoother ride. Isn't that backwards? On my bicycle, higher pressure is faster but obviously bumpier and less traction in corners. I use 80 psi for my rear tire, 70 psi front.
Anyway I pumped them up to 32 psi, should be good I guess, or my wife might be in a ditch now besides the road
would have loved to stay on for a couple more with you but i gotta go earn the money and stuff.
There should be tire pressure specs on a sticker inside the driver's door near the latch. That's for cold tires, when they warm up the pressure increases slightly. And... 40psi is better fuel economy while 35 psi provides a smoother ride. I changed my tire size from factory size so the specs don't apply. I run them at max (36psi) for better drifting.Question, what should the tire pressure be of my car?

Am I the only one seeing that?
It's because you're extra special.What is this Premium tag thing next to my name?
Ben's a damn good ally to have in the races. 👍@Sven Jurgens , what sturk said. Check the sticker in the drivers door jam.
After fussing with my connections i got my internet back stable just in time for one more race. It was well worth it. Had an amazing race with @BenRod from start to finish. No one else with us. My brake pedal is starting to Ghost brake again a bit and stuck on early in the first lap which let him get in front, then i followed so we could gap the field before i was gonna try anything. I got by in t1 of lap 3 and he did the same on the last lap to regain the lead and the win. Great to race with you as always sir

all year tires, I never bother changing the tires for winter.

I, too, will blame it on @sturk0167 !
@T_702_Balone I've raced that dude quite a few times. I don't recall memorable problems that I've had with him. Perhaps I've just been lucky.
This is the racing history of a jackwagon that I've been on the lookout for.
He has over 1,500 wins. Hmmmm..... I wonder why.
