Thank you guys! Im using goodyear 205/45 16 . I follow the tyre pressure 350kpa max

 

What you are doing is reducing the contact patch between the tire and tarmac. Good luck.

See over inflation.

Hi all, just got my pre-owned Odyssey 2015. Is it ok to pump 270-280kpa on stock tyre since the ride is heavy.

 

The recommended pressure on the side door seems to be on the Low side.

 

Thanks in advance.

Its ok.

I also pump that high.

The tyres won't explode even if u pump 400.

So dun need worry about that ( unless got damage).

Just dun pump too much.

Will effect braking distance

IMHO,  if you already deviated from the recommended,  you can basically pump any pressure you like.

Later you will know if it is ok or not.

How much air to pump is based on tire or based on car ?

 

Eg if car comes with 16" but we use 17" and there are almost no car brand tires like BMW or Toyota Vios etc....so very hard to like use the sticker at car door for ref ?

 

Any good links for references ?

What's original tyre load index?  What's tyre pressure required?

 

What's upsize tyre load index?

Actually, you just need to look for a dusty carpark.  After you bring the tyres to temperature,  drive into that carpark.  The dust (usually grey) on the tyre threads will give you a good indication if you are over or under pressure.

 

Also,  look at the date code on the tyres,  see if need to change or not.

Do you own a car? :D

 

All cars comes with tire brands such as Goodyear, Michelin, Bridgestone, continental, Dunlop, westlake, hankook.... 

 

Look at your tire pressure sticker near your driver door frame.

They told me the recommendation of 230kpa in the manual is based on cold tires condition (aka without traveling prior to pump). If need to drive a distance to petrol kiosk under a hot day here...the tire pressure usually will increased for another 20~30kpa due to heat. So if pump under such hot tires condition 250~260kpa is recommended. In my case I’m quite comfortable with 250kpa.
