What is the correct tire pressure?
Our car has the 20" AMG wheels with 255 tires in the front and 275 tires in the back. What is the correct tire pressure for them?

EDIT: They are summer tires.

Open drivers door; front/rear tire pressures are on door jam.

Right, it's on the driver's side door jam but let me tell you - this is a question that seems to elicit a different response each time I ask a tech.

Funny - each time I get a different answer.

FWIW I have 19" (not 20") wheels but tend to pressurize at 34 or 35 (cold) - a bit above the 31 recommended. I still got 18,000 miles out of my original factory tires at this pressure.

I checked on the driver's door jam but there is nothing about tire pressure. Only a sticker stating the number you have to dial for servicing.

My tire pressure requirements are listed on the gas tank filler compartment panel cover.
