Tire pressure

///Wald · 07-19-2010, 09:16 PM

Hi Guys,

Do you follow the tire pressure recommendations by BMW or do you simply put another amount?

I have a 06 325i and average 23 mpg on 17 inch premium wheels.

My tire pressure is 34 all around. Do you think this is causing the 23 mpg?

thanks,
Bryan

Could be, sounds low -- I ran 38 all around on 17's on my E36 M3.

Iv found that about 36-38 PSI has worked great for my gas mileage and steering response. I would recommend playing around with the pressures and see what works best for you.
