E350 Sport Package
What is your tire Pressure in 18" Rim?
I have the E350 MB sport package, and it comes with the 18" rims. 265 rear, 245 front. But one can tell me the actual tire perssure? Does anyone know the tire persure of the 18" 265 or 245?

Thank you!

I have the E500 and have AMG wheels. 35 PSI all the way around is the best..

I have found, along with a lot of other E55 owners that 41 front and 36 rear works very well. Try it and see what you think

I also run 41 front and 36 rear- the difference helps with the offset imho.

It is weird that our dealer asked us to follow the perssure following; Front & Rear 28 PSI for the 18" rim. I think they were only telling the standard PSI for the 16" rims. They said there was no PSI difference between 16" rims and 18" rims, but i dont trust him.

What do you think???

There should be information on the inside of the fuel door.

Because unless you do what's on your gas cap door, you're basically choosing a technique.. so you're going to find dozens!

Go with the gas cap cover / owners manual numbers if you want MB numbers.
