gots a car with 17" low profile tires on it. Miata stardard 14" rating is 26 PSI front and back. I asked at two tire places - one said "I just go by what it says on the side of the tire...". Mental note to never take my car there and let them touch anything on it. Other place said just use the car's rated PSI. How can that offer enough pressure against road bumps and not damage the rims?
So, I'm toying around with PSI [maybe I'm just too anal about it] to get a good ride, be above the car rating and below the side wall which labels the "MAX PSI" to use with the tire, not a good recommended starting point.
I'm hovering tween 28 and 31ish, sort of aiming at 29 or 30.
Do any of you KNOW what low profiles tires are supposed to be set at? SPILL IT TO ME!
