tire pressure

ehoffman · 03-23-2015, 11:06 AM

Currently I have 19 in wheels on an E92 with the sports package. The recommended tire pressure per the manual is 36psi and 41psi for a staggered setup. I plan to sell these wheels and tires soon because I got some 18s just so I can get all season tires.
Now that I have 18s, should I use the recommended psi of 32 and 36, even though my car came with OEM 19s?

Thanks

The manual has the recommended pressure for all BMW standard tire sizes. If they are 225 front and 255 rear, then 32 and 36 would be correct for 18's.

I don't think couple psi makes huge difference. I do 35-38
