Winter tyre pressures?
Mark G - 18/12/09 at 10:37 PM

Hi all,

I don't get out much in my car in the cold but when I do I'm wondering should I change my pressures. Then began to wonder if I had them right in the first place.

I'm driving an MK Indyblade with a full cage. I had the pressures set to 16psi in the summer. Should I raise or lower them for the winter or just leave them the same?

Many thanks
Mark.

Technically lower them I guess
But in reality wont make much difference
I'll cofirm tomorrow as long asits not actually snowing

good question, since the cold air will reduce the pressure slightly, i guess they sort of look after themselves?
