The the fronts are 235/35R19 and rears are 265/30R19 .
According to the tyre pressure label, the factory standard 19's (225/35 Front, 255/30 Rear) should be 2.3 bar and 2.8 bar respectively.
Am I safe to use these RFT pressures on none runflats.

Tyre Pressures
When I bought my car it was wearing non standard alloys with non run flat tyres.

Re: Tyre Pressures
We have different sizes to you (18s) but have just stuck to the standard pressures and the car feels fine and not had any problems

Re: Tyre Pressures
Cerbera, I'm no tyre specialist but I think RFT use higher pressures than non RFT.
I do not run my 3.0si at RFT pressures - 32ftlbs front and 34 ftlbs rear is what I use with my GoodYear F1s (non RFT 18in).
