psi = pressure, not amount

no matter what size rims u have, how small/big the tyres are the psi stays the same in accordance to the engine size iirc

32 all round is what most garages/tyre places put in all tyres as standard.

 

35 front 32 rear for corsa c

 

maybe for your 1.8 but not his 1.4

 

up to 3 passengers

1.0 = 32 front / 26 rear

1.2 = 32 front / 26 rear

1.4 = 33 front / 30 rear

1.7d = 33 front / 30 rear

fully laden (3+ passengers)

all models = 35 front / 41 rear



there you go lol. from haynes manual coz im bored.

 

hynes manual legendary

 

Cheers chap! (and Haynes) :doublethumbs:

 

haynes ftw. its always handy lol

 

1.8sri is 38 front 35 rear. Im sure of it.

 

seems a little high to me.

my dads old astra 1.8 had same engine as the c and we ran all 4 tyres on 32psi

 

The reason I asked the question is because I've just forked out £90 on two new front tyres which had both worn around the edges. I'm 99% sure it's because they were under-inflated.

That'll teach me not to keep an eye on them. :slap:

 

i do fronts on my 1.4 at 36 every other week and bloke at tyre place says they are probally the most evenly worn tyres he has seen

 

36 seems hi but it depends what you want lower the psi the better grip

 

i just do 32 all round.

 

You pressures are probabaly wrong then. Also, most of those haynes listed pressures are completely wrong.

For example the 1.7CDTI pressures for 195/45/16 tyres are 39 front 36 rear. This is out of the vauxhall manual, so these are correct, simple as.

 

in the list i mentions i never mentiond cdti, i was talking about dti

 

get this yea, i took my car into vauxhall to get a few things checked out,
and it was pulling to left and its been vibrating through steering wheel, and it was balanced on front not long back and it didnt stop the vibe,
so when i got the car back today they sed the tyres were inflated wrong and that they should be
32fr 23r , so now iv got them pressures in and it handles like ****. thats according to the new chart vauxhall masterfit have just had.
in my book it says 35 fr 32r, so im gonna put it back to that and put up with the vibration. wat does anyone on here reckon?

 

for 1.8 its def 35 front 32 rear for up to 3 passengers, for a full load its 38 front 44 rear.

 

im sure i have seen a link on these pages related to tyre pressure related to your engine size.

 

Engines - Z14XE, Z18XE SRi only
Tyres - 195/45 R16
Inflation With upto 3 Persons - F 35 R 32
Inflation With full load - F 38 R 44

I always put a few extra psi in the fronts on the 1.4. I run my SRi's at 35r and 33r

 

I'm sure I saw somewhere it was 33f and 31r.
