I’ve been happy running 4 extra psi in the front on our X1, but I’ll be even happier if it also extends the lifespan of the tires given the FWD bias and weight distribution. I’ll be rotating the tires regularly and keeping track of tread depth. |
That is a good idea. I will see if that also works for our X1. The 340 although a newer model (2018) is actually the older vehicle. I purchased the X1 in October (a 2016). I have been very impressed with it. My teen daughter has usurped it for her car. With her sports activities it works great for her, but I will have to drive it a bit more and check the tire pressure and see about tire wear. It was a low mileage CPO with new tires when we bought it.
