    What pressure are people running their tyres at? I'm running at the recommended 34 psi for the front with 38/29 for the rear left and rear right respectively.

    Why so crazy on the rear?

    I'm running 36 to 38 all round in a Vectra CDXI. Depends on where I'm driving. Uaually 36 around town and up to 38 on the highway trips.

    btw.. 36 all round for me (tyre joint recommendations)
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    Just following what it says on the sticker on the fuel cover. I'll take a pic if you don't believe me. I thought it was WTF as well.

    You're def reading it wrong. Top pressures are for up to 3 passangers. Bottom is for a fully loaded car.

    Not left and right.
