Recommended PSI?

Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone! I am curious...how much PSI do you guys run on your vehicles? I have a Toyota Camry and it recommends 32 PSI but I have heard that increased PSI can save you on MPG? I currently run my tires at 35 PSI but the tire itself says max 51? Should I increase my PSI a little more?

Increasing the PSI makes the tire "harder" which lessens its rolling resistance and can improve mileage. But on the downside you might wear the center of the tread out before the outside of the tread and find yourself replacing the tires sooner than you should have which wipes out any money saved on fuel by upping the pressure.

 I recommend just putting in what the car manufactured specifies.

Usually, inside the door frame it will list what tire size is reccomended, and what tire pressure should be.

If you have the reccomended size, use the pressure reccomended!
