You should get your own tire
pressure gauge and use it whenever
you check your tire pressures. This
will make it easier for you to tell if a
pressure loss is due to a tire problem
and not due to a variation between
gauges.
Recommended Tire Pressures for
Normal Driving
The following chart shows the
recommended cold tire pressures for
most normal driving conditions and
speeds.
(U.S.: DX, HX, LX, Canada: DX, LX)
Tire Size Cold Tire Pressure
for Normal Driving
P185/70R14 87S 30 psi (210 kPa , 2.1
kgf/cm )
(U.S.: EX, Canada: Si)
Tire Size Cold Tire Pressure
for Normal Driving
P185/65R15 86H 30 psi (210 kPa , 2.1
kgf/cm )
The compact spare tire pressure is:
60 psi (420 kPa , 4.2 kgf/cm )
These pressures are also given on
the tire information label on the
driver's doorjamb.
Tubeless tires have some ability to
self-seal if they are punctured.
However, because leakage is often
very slow, you should look closely
for punctures if a tire starts losing
pressure.
