Van drivers, how much to pump for tyre?

Depending on the load the van is carrying. I sometimes drive my coy's van. My coy's Berlingo van states front 280kpa, rear 300kpa but I dun fill the rear tyres to that pressure unless I'm carrying really heavy load. I find that it's good to judge by physically looking at the state of the tyre too. If the tyre look saggy or deflated, pump in more pressure, around 20~40kpa more is ok.

 

If you find that FC falls drastically dan normal that means your tyre is not up to the efficient level. Dun worry as the tyre won't "burst" at 300kpa. The max pressure is usually 4~5 times the working pressure before it fails.

 

A lot of things you can take note and it does not only apply to vans.

jippun van and eurovan have very different inflation pressures. eurovan is similar to car. maybe plus 10-20%.

 

jippun van, i think the tire pressure typically above 300kpa. i see one uncle pump 400, he say it's like that.

 

please do some googling or check the door sill, petrol cap or whatever to see the pressure. shd be indicated somewhere
