I have a 2009 Ace Adventurer 635EK (same as the Swift Voyager), the hand-book says "see the base vehicle manufacturer's recommended pressures" Fiat recommend 79.1psi all round (which sounds a bit high to me), but on the
Continental Vaneo tyres fitted, it clearly states max pressure 69psi........
So what pressure should I use? I tend to think that Continental know what they are talking about as they made the tyres in the first place. I know the obvious answer is to go to a public weighbridge, note the axle weights and consult the tyre manufacturer, but surely there is a ballpark figure that I can use? I mean the weight varies depending on if I am going away for a weekend or a fortnight, whether my tanks, (fresh, waste and diesel) are full, half-full or empty or indeed anywhere I between.
So what is the collective knowledge on this?
