230kpa max is too low if you pump on a very hot afternoon just after you drove about 20km. why? hot air.
if you bother checking after you pump when the tires are cold, they are probably about 200kpa

errh.. can u explain y the whole tyre will come off the rim? :confused1:
over inflation can be risky as pressure inside the tyres will expand during travel. the hot air will cause quite substantial pressure build up. if u are travelling long distances, e.g. to msia, do not overinflate the tires.

Wah soo many kia si ppl around :zipped: FYI 230 and 210 tyre pressure is only a recommended guide by nissan lar pump a bit higher wont make ur tyre burst 1....the most is a harsher ride only so far my tyres still the outer side wear more than the center part leh...maximum cold pressure is 300kpa for our stock toyo tyres soo we should be ok when we pump below that :devil2:
BTW to each his own if u all dun fell good just stick to the recommended pressure lor...and i can continue to come here and post my FC to terrorise u all :devil2:

errhh... bro, I am not offended but i tink u shouldn't label those who don't onverinflate their tyres as kiasi rite? some of us here are juz more concerned abt the safety rather than FC. And we are all learning and sharing info here coz we have doubts. i tink u won't like it if others call u kiasu bcoz u try every ways & means to achieve good FC rite?
u are rite in saying overinflating abit is alrite. but even though the max pressure for toyo is 300, it doesn't mean there will be no risks when its inflated to that level. main thing is to strike a balance.
anyway my tire pressure is 245 front and 230 back. overinflate oso coz i dun drive long distances. ;)
clarence:
fri13th,
The savings in fuel consumption is not worth the risk of a lack of grip due to your overinflated tyres.
You not only subject your family's lives to great risk, but other road users' too.
270KPa is on the high side even for a full load of 5.
