Because your tires have a low profile,
do not rely on a visual inspection to
determine whether the tires have the
proper air pressure.
Instead, we recommend that you use
a gauge to measure the air pressures
at least once a month
. Even tires
that are in good condition may loose
one to two psi (10 to 20 kPa, 0.1 to
0.2 kgf/cm ) par month.
Using tires that are excessively
worn or improperly inflated can
cause a crash in which you can
be seriously hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this
owner's manual regarding tire
inflation and maintenance.
Remember to check the spare tire at
the same time you check all the
other tires.
Recommended Tire Pressures for
Normal Driving
The following chart shows the
recommended cold tire pressures for
most normal driving conditions and
speed.

The compact spare tire pressure is:
60 psi (420 kPa , 4.2 kgf/cm )
Recommended Tire Pressures for
High Speed Driving
Acura strongly recommends that you
not drive faster than posted speed
limits and conditions allow. If you
decide it is safe to drive at high
speeds (over 118 mph or 190 kph),
be sure to adjust the cold tire
pressures as shown below. If you do
not adjust the tire pressure,
excessive heat can build up and
cause sudden tire failure.
