Never understood why LR never put the pressures in the Handbook, on both mine it stated, See Label, referring to the label on the B Pillar. |

If you go to Topix, look at the 07 and the 11 ones it's not listed. |

Excuse me for being cynical here, but if the Label on your car states the pressure for 19" tyres, then why do you need it confirming?

I have 17" wheels and run the front tyres at 33.5 (on digital gauge) as it gives me a sharper turn-in without affecting tyre wear. 32 psi at the back as norm.

The tyre guys in Australia seem to be a bit nutty. Every time you get any type of work done they inflate your tyres to 38-40psi no matter what the make, model of the tyre or car. The fashion is high psi and I don't agree with it. I have to constantly argue to get the 32-33-psi I prefer on my 17's. They speak to me like I'm running on flat tyres. I wonder what it's like in other countries? |

But of much more importance is what you actually put in them. I have recently tried pure nitrogen but went back to my original blend of 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.039% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases. |

tyre fitters have to chuck a higher pressure in to get the tyre to seat correctly, so it sounds like they forgot to set the pressure afterwards |
