Correct tyre pressure???

Greetings,

Does anybody know what is the correct tyre pressure for a hot climate like california 30 to 35 celcius running 235/40/18 front and 265/25/18 rear on a W210 E240 V6??

Thanks for the help.........

Regards,
Simon Low

simon..where have you been man? where are the pics you promised? dying to see piccys of your car. You wouldn't happen to be driving a black W210 with the wald kit, wald badges and some funky rims and blacked out grille?

I have the same exact rim set up as you, and i'm using 32 psi pressure.

Sweet dude! then I have seen your car around heaps...saw your car parked at that apartment being built at Taman Desa once and also when i was on my way back near Uptown.

You're right about one U..I go to the gym there, hence the preffered parking. Love the stance and the blacked out grille. Still can't believe you converted a post 99 to a pre 99 and added the kit..looks awesome..what rims were those anyways? Will have a closer look next time i see it at one U! lol

Ah tee at sunway? the falken place right? staggered look is the way..what tyres are you on? I use to put in 36 all round, but recently been told to keep it 32 psi. What did Ah tee use for yours?

My sis's apartment is the Bukit Desa Condo. I drive by your site almost everyday...been keeping tabs on it for fun..i'm an architect by profession btw...tight site, and suprised you got it approved for apartments..but looking good!

Money well spent btw..wald kit is nice, and hopefully i'll be blacking out my owngrille soon too..your car looks clean and immaculate...how does it handle?

you drove it down to Singapore and back for the transformation?

Greetings Carlsson9,

Yup the land size is kinda small only 0.6 of an acre.

We are only building 36 units of condo, is kinda a cool place when is completed. Good for the young executives & the global nomad.

I don't know what tyre pressure did "Ah Tee" put in my car.......

But anyway i have it at 33psi now.

Yes got the facelift done from stuttgard, drove all the way to singapore for bodykit from Imperial Concept and paint job done in Batu Caves.

Next was thinking of the 4 or 6 pot AMG calipers, i think is most like going to be a 4 pot hahaha.......

Was thinking of increasing the power, called kleensmann cost a bomb to install the kompressor Rm40k. So i guess all for looks now. Handling could be further improve, need to change the springs to a complete shocks from H&R Cup kit and H&R anti roll bars front/rear.

Say you are an architect by profession, we could meet up and have some constructive chat.

Regards,
Simon Low
