Look in your manual mate. It has the tyre pressure recommended relating to the engine in the car.

About 30-31 psi is right for a C tho, NOT 50

I think it's the same tyre pressure weather its a 15" or 17" wheel, as it goes off the weight of the car

Read up the topic num nuts, tyre pressures generally go on weight of car, not wheel size :roll:
