In layman's terms 1 bar is equal to 14.696 psi which is one atmosphere.
so 5.5bar X 14.696 = 80.82psi:winky:

They normally come with a 2 year guarantee But with you Mo, I'm happy to give you an exclusive lifetime guarantee:thumb::ROFLMAO:

Are we back to 'how much pressure in the tyres despite the fact that Fiat and the tyre makers don't agree' ? :winky::winky:

Just email Michelin tell them what tyres and sizes are fitted and the axle weights ( off the rapido body plate will do ) then they will give you a pressure to put in them.
I was quite surprised how much less they recommend than fiat but they should know best as they make the tyre.
