- 03 LE - Tire Pressure
- Posted by tcl
03 LE 4 cylinder automatic, 30K miles. original Bridgestone
tires. I rotate the tires once every 10-12K miles. I do mostly
city driving (commute to work by myself in Marland).
The spec for the tire pressure on the label on my car door is
29 psi for all four tires. I always kept all 4 tires at 30 psi.
(measured while the tires are cool, of cause).
Taken a very close look at the tires lately. They still
have quite some tread and should last for at least another
year (12K miles). But the edge of the tires wear much faster
than the middle. That tells me I did not have enough pressure
on the tires. Just inflated them to 32 psi. That's 3 pounds
higher than the recommended pressure. Is it a good idea?

My sticker recommends 32PSI for normal driving speed, oop, it is a factory
16" with 215/60 16.
2nd thing is whether your tire gauge is accurate or not. Some tire gauges
have up to 3 PSI in difference.
