2011 Saab 9-5 Vector SE Tyre Pressure
Hello All
According to the information plate on the passengers door sill for my 2011 Saab 9-5 Vector SE the Type pressure for the front and rear tyre is 260 KPA which equates to 2.6 BAR or 37.7 PSI.
This seems high.
Just wondering has anyone else used these pressures.
I feel the tyres are too hard.
Regards

mine was at 2.4 front 2.2 rear (seems before they change to recommend same pressure front and rear ) anyway feel prefect for me with radial summer tires, for tires more saggy on the sides a little more could be required.

I run also same size summertires and I wouldn't go below that 2.6bar. I run with about 2,8 bar. They feel harder as the height of the tyres is smaller. If you go less I think the tires will wear uneven. I have even in winter studtires 225/55r17 2,6bar. They are quite soft see by eye even abit empty...
