What tire pressure are people using for all-seasons? Just got car back from having work done at the dealer and they put the tire pressure to 38 psi all around. Door jam says 32 f and r but not sure if that is recommendation for the flat-runs (which are long gone). So just wondering what people are using. Oh, I have a 2004 PB

Refer to the following website. There is a good detailed explanation and guidelines to follow for inflating tires at the correct tire pressure. If you follow the chart, the top line (horizontal) is the recommended tire pressure by the manufacture. The ambient temperature is located on the left or vertical axis.

I've run non RFTs for quite a few years now. I always try to go for 3 - 5 psi above recommendation from a practical perspective to provide a bit more protection if I hit a pothole etc. I try to set my inflation pressure at 37 or 38 as well.

I follow 33 psi. They do accumulate 3 to 4 psi as you run. I saw this on my rental car, Malibu when I set the display on tire pressure, cold would start at 33 and it went up 37 to 38 psi. More so on the front tires than the rear, which makes sense since the fronts take the abuse on the turning.

I am running 20 " RIMS so I set mine at 36 to 38 lbs. I find the back tires heat up more since there the drive tires.
