Front tyre pressure for '93 850 SE Saloon / Sedan?

Discussion in 'Volvo 850' started by Stuart Cormie, Feb 11, 2004.

  1. What is the correct normal front tyre pressure for a '93 850 SE Saloon / Sedan?

    The manual says 32 psi, but the label on the inside of the filler flap says 30!

    TIA,

    Stuart

  2. If you want a third number look at the side of the tire. That is the
    highest number that you can safely run. I always run my tires at the
    highest pressure recommended. In the manual they have a set of higher
    numbers for hauling heavy loads. Then if my tire wear is higher in the
    center, I back off. If you want quick handling, the higher numbers are
    better. If you want a softer ride, then the lower numbers are better.

  3. When testing tires for a major company on my vehicle I found sneaking the
    pressure up saved me rubber as well as fuel .
    It was suggested 10 savings in tire life as well I picked up less road
    debris .
