225/45/18 tyre pressure
« on: September 14, 2017, 09:49:54 pm »
Hi,

Just put some OZ Ultraleggera alloys on my MK7 GTi PP. it came with 225/45/18 tyres. I have read the debate about running 45's instead of 40's. The person I bought the alloys from did quite a bit of research etc, and I know it effects the speedo, but the ride is much better especially with all the pot holes in London.

Does anyone know what tyre pressure I should be using?

Many thanks.
