Default PLEASE Check Tire Pressure

Just a friendly reminder to everyone about something that can be very dangerous. We check every Car and Truck that enter our doors and have found that 2/3 are 5-10 psi lower than prescibed. Thanks!

My manual says 29. The tires seems to be wearing perfect for wide tires.

Mine says 35 too. I switched to 29-30 and it rides much better. 35 is the highest I have ever seen for a passenger car. Almost wonder if it is a typo.

huh, I just checked my drivers door and manual and they both say 35PSI, so that's what I've been running...

I wonder if the 35 was for the original tires and they updated it when they started fitting Pilot Sports, which is what I'm currently running (on stock 3-spoke rims)

Someone please advise as to why these are different???

does the 17 or 18 inch wheel make a difference? I can't see how it would...
