I run a B6 Passat on 225/40/ZR18 tyres (Falken FK452's) and I run 36psi in the front, 38 psi in the rear. Hope this helps!

those pressures sound high to me.

My TT on 19's is 28psi front and 26psi rear. My only other advice is to speak to an audi dealer or delve into the manual...

It was a tyre fitting company that put the pressure in for me. The car is going in for a fuel pump recall next week so I'll ask the dealer about it then! Thanks for the advice though

Try here guys - put your registration number in and it should find the correct pressures front and back.

Guys, i have been told by both dealer and wheelbase [ where my wheels/tyres came from] that simply put what it says in your handbook/ sticker [ usually inside filler flap/ door shut]

I have 19" from 17" so a 2" jump and my car a4 s-line avant says 32 psi all round, thats what i have been running now for over a year and no probs at all.

Hope this helps

I have a Golf IV GTTDI And the Kwik-fit site told me 33psi in front and 30psi in back.

it is 30psi all around according to VW but I have mine at 33psi as the car feels better plus have a boot full of crap!

Thanks for that Lemonslap. I'm now running 34psi front, 36psi rear and I think it suits my driving which is mostly Motorway and A road now
