hey guys im just looking for some advice concerning tyre pressure, i own a V6 VT exec and ive put some 17's on with Ventus 235/45 tyres. unfortunately my tyre placard only has pressure values for the 15 inch tyres and so i have no idea what pressure i should be using with the 17s. if anyone could suggest what sort of pressure i should be using that would be great.
thanks.

Nice choice in tyres mate i got em and love em ;) wouldnt choose nething else atm 36psi is ideal 4 those wouldnt go nemore unless u r towing somthing under a heavy load just make sure u check these at least 1nc a month and u'll have no probs
