    Pressures

    Hey y'all,

    I drive a sedan with Continental DWSs. Stock size. I just noticed that my tires are all at 29 lbs. I read the side door panel thing and it says 39 lbs.

    First: what pressures do you guys run?
    Second: will filling regular air in a nitrogen filled tire be bad?

    Sorry for the dumb question. I am exhausted. Also this forum looked sleepy.

    Best,
    Pete

    Unless you're doing major canyon driving, leave it at what the door panel says.

    +1 to Danes suggestion. I'm pretty sure my door panel said something outrageous like 38 front and 45 rear. I just remember reading it and going holy shit that seems way to high.


    As for nitrogen, it won't mess anything up. I think the weight of nitrogen is a teeny tiny bit less than that of a tire with air. And something to do with air can potentially cause corrosion. It's just a ploy to separate you from your money.

    Really? My door says 33 lbs on all 4 corners. On my xi it was similar.
