Tyre Pressures

Hi I have a 2002 First Gen Mini with 195/55/15 they are Toyo Proxies fitted, what are the tyre pressure ratings for this, anyone know?

Thanks!

Matt

Look at the inside of the drivers door. There is a chart with the proper pressure.

Yeah I would do that normally, but these tyres are different dimensions to the originals. I don't know if that matters or not?

I have gone from (175/65/15) to this size - (195/55/15)

Thanks

I would check the max pressure on the new tires and compare them to the older ones. If it was the same, I would run the same pressure.
