MG MGF Technical - Tyre Air Pressure


Dear enthusiasts,

What is the air pressure in the tyres supposed to be? I have the orignal VVC tyres.
1.8 in front and 2.0 in the back? I have read it in the handbook but I just want to check it with you guys.

Cheers

Sorry guys,

I wrote it in lbs. or something. Swedish measurement,. The same with km/h nevertheless I have an imported MGF VVC from London. so I see the Mph. We have Kilograms instead of stones and pounds. In height we have metres and centimetres whilst you have feet.

Well, the for my the Pint is the most important measurement,. sometimes I just hope it would be bigger.

Philly!

I find a couple of pounds extra gives a slightly better feel - but try it yourself and see what suits you.

The Y2000 VVC with 16" recommended is 24psi front and 28 back - cold of course - which seems fine to me. The tyres *look* flat, though.
