Kia Pregio Tyre Pressure

[stoke]

I purchased a 2nd hand Kia Pregio Panel Van here in South Africa, and they had lost the Owners Handbook.
Can somebody out there help me out with the correct tyre pressure settings for laden and unladen.

Pretty please .. :-)

You may want to check the prescribed tire pressure of the tire that you have.
Look at the side of the ire, there you can find the maximum pressure that the tire can withstand. I normally put 45psi in my 14" 8ply goodyear tire.

yes, it should be 45 max, not more than that

Thanks 4 the answers.

I managed to get a really bad faxed copy of that particular page of the manual, and it says 3 bar on the front and up to 4 bar on the rear. And it's a heck of a lot stabler now that it's inflated like that.

Previously it would lurch allover the place on breaking, they used to run the front tyres @ 4 bar and the rear @ 3 bar, and breaking would result in a heavy sway to the right. Bizzare. But yea.

if your car sway whenever you step on the break, i dont think the tyre pressure is the problem. Mostly, its caused by the break system it self, need to be serviced, servicing breaking system is easy and can be done by ourself.
