195/70 r15 reinforced correct psi please

[Sir Brixalot]

Hi

I have had these put on all corners of my watercooled Autosleeper. National tyre inflated them all to 29 psi, I have now topped the rears to 37. CAN anyone advise correct pressure for front and rears? thanks

185/70/15's are car tyres and not suitable for a 2 ton van.

[Sir Brixalot]

Sorry they're 195/70 15 commercials - title changed

[g60steve]

Ahhh that's better.

50psi according to VW for a T4 with that size tyre fitted.

[Sir Brixalot]

Thansk. Although the tyres are listed as Cargo their maximum psi is only 51 so I'd better go a bit lower.

[kevtherev]

why?

[jamesandtheopenroad]

I have them on mine and have 47 at the front and 51 on the rear.

What's that got to do with a T3?

Because they're fitted to a T3 and a T3 Autosleeper weighs near enough the same(unladen and laden) as a T4.
195/70/15C's were never fitted to a T3 so there's no info for that size tyre on a T3....but they are fitted on a T4 hence me stating 50psi.

Ok?

[Sir Brixalot]

thanks for all the advice. Gonna get inflating, looks like National Tyres woefully under inflated them

looks like National Tyres woefully under inflated them

Even car tyres are inflated to 32-34psi!

Oh and they're not alone.....someone bought some alloys off me recently and he's worked for Kwik Fit for quite a few years......I had to explain to him what ET/Offset means.

[Sir Brixalot]

No surprise there. Increased pressures all round last night, weirdly National Tyres had inflated the fronts inflated to 39psi and the rears to only 29psi!
