Question:

Air Pressure for Tires?

Each of my tires have a different PSIShould I inflate each tire to the same PSI or Inflate them according to what is said on the tiresThanks in Advance

Answer:

Find the silly decal,check tires when they are cold.Before driving. The # on the tire is the max. pressure for a heavy car with those tires. The pressure for the front will be higher than the rear more weight more pressure.
Just like someone else mentioned.open the driver's door and there should be a sticker on the side of it that tells you the recommended psi for each tire. They should all be the same pressure.
Most answerers got it mostly right. The Vehicle Information Tag, typically found inside the drivers door frame or on the inside of the glove box door gives the tire pressure recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. That recommended inflation pressure may not be the same for the front and rear tires. Some vehicles recommend identical pressures front and rear but many will have higher front or higher rear pressures. That is why the vehicle information tag is so important to determine correct inflation. Do it wrong and it could seriously upset the handling, braking and load carrying characteristics of the vehicle. Always check tires when cold - before driving on them and preferably in the morning. Check your pressures at least once a month but peferably once a week. Never use the information printed on the tire sidewall as a recommended inflation pressure. The only information you will find on the tire about inflation is the maximum cold inflation pressure the tire is rated for. ASE Certified Automotive Service Advisor working in the tire industry
