Tyre pressures

Post by Rickyxsara » Tue Aug 09, 2022 10:20 pm

Got my car back today with new tyre fitted. I ran all 4 tyres as per door label at 2.2. The dealer had them all at 2.7. I checked the door label and it says ECO against the 2.7. What do you reckon, or is it personal choice.

Personal choice but 2.7 seems a bit on the high end. Car supplied with 2.2 and new tyres at the weekend and they also came back with 2.2 without me mentioning anything.

Slight aside but 2.2 also gave completely even wear across the rear tyres

    My old BMW had 3 tyres fitted at the dealer - all 3 were either massively over or massively under what they should be. They give that task to a 18 year who is clueless and they don't check his work. I called the dealer and stated the PSI on all 3 new wheels were massively wrong - he didn't care.
