Staggered Tire Pressure for Bluetec??
I did a search and didn't see this exactly. I put the OEM staggered 18" set on my BTEC. 245/40/18 front and 265/35/18 rear. They are ContiProContacts, OEM tire.
As the BTEC came with 17" runflats, I expect to run different tire pressures with this new set. The dealer set them at 32f/34r when they installed the 18s. What are others running? Should my rear tire pressure be up a little based on the adblue tank back there??
By the way, my local dealer put my new set on for free. They told me they still honor the "first rotation free prior to 9k miles" even though other dealers don't. Not bad. And they considered this a rotation as I had a full set all mounted and balanced. 17s off and 18s on!
