Tyre Pressures?

Post by dezzy » Thu Aug 17, 2006 2:09 pm

Still waiting on my manual from MMC (they lost the original, so have ordered a new one from Lotus), so have no idea about my recommended tyre pressures. Driving to Leicester and back at the weekend, so would like to check tyre pressures before the journey.

Elise 111R
Standard Bridgestone Potenzas that come with the car.
Boot fully loaded and 2 passengers.

What should front and rear pressures be?

Thanks,

Manual will say:
Pressure (cold) - front 1.8 bar (26 psi)
- rear 1.9 bar (27.5 psi)
