18" wheels and tires. PSI pressure need professional opinion
I need some clarification guys. i got a bunch of different suggestions.
anybody really experienced in this sort of thing?
My OEM Wheels and tires were 17 inches and were staggered from the factory. here are the pictures of the stickers of my car.
I now have 18 inch rims with tires that came maxed out at 50 psi.
what is the correct PSI that i need to have my tires on?
four 225/40R18XL 92W BW YOK YK580

If you don't like the responses you have gotten here or aren't satisfied with them, there is a whole section devoted to wheels and tires moderated and/or reviewed by a tire professional from tire rack.

You should get the answer you are looking for there. However, different people prefer different pressures in their tires so you can get multiple answers from different perspectives.

Edit- And if I was a "hata" as you put it, I wouldn't have complimented your set up in the other thread you started about this topic.

I think you misunderstood my post. You were asking for a "professional" opinion and it's obviously important to you since you started two threads about it. I was just trying to point you in a different direction to get the advice you were asking for. Chill.

take it from me, run 36/36 w yokohomas. If you run rear passengers or weight in your rear bump up 2 psi. 35-40 is optimal and its getting warm out. your cold 36's will be 38s warm and thats where u wanna be. U can always adjust a couple psi to suit your taste, if you dont feel any difference leave them 36 for best wear. Rotate every 4k miles......
