Winter Tire Pressure

liquid_vox · 11-18-2009, 09:43 AM

I'm about to switch over to winter tires this weekend and I was curious about proper tire pressures.

I have a 2009 335i coupe with the sport package. I will be mounting this winter tire/rim combination:

Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 non-run flat tires (225/45 R17)

BMW OEM Style 159 rims (17x8)

Would 34 psi for the front and 36 psi for the rear be correct?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Angelo

Not sure where I saw this but I read recently that 2lbs more psi was recommended over stock pressures.
