The tire pressure recommended by TOYOTA for modifying your vehicle can be found on the plate located on the door pillar or in the table "Recommended tire pressure when cold".
Table. Recommended tire pressure when cold
Note: When transporting heavy loads, the rear tire pressure should be increased by approximately 0.5 bar.
Note:
- The lower the tread height, the greater the risk of tire slip. The performance of snow tires is significantly reduced if the tread is worn to a height of less than 4 mm.
- Incorrect tire pressure can shorten tire life and make your vehicle less safe to drive.
- Underinflation leads to excessive tire wear, an increased chance of punctures from overheated tires, poor handling and increased fuel consumption.
- If the tire pressure is very low, the wheel may be deformed and/or the tire may have come loose.
- High tire pressure results in poor comfort, handling problems, and increased wear on the center tread of the tire tread.
2. Check pressure only when tires are cold. If the car has been parked for at least three hours, the pressure gauge reading will be correct.
Attention:
- Always use a manometer. The appearance of a tire can be misleading.
- Be sure to replace the tire valve cap as dirt and moisture can get into the valve and cause air leakage.
