I just got 16x7.5 rims with 225/55/16 rubber on them for my '86 420SEL. I am wondering what inflation pressure I should be running with my new combo. Stock wheels and tires ran 29 front and 30 rear normal, and 30 front 35 rear for handling/large load. Right now I have them at 32/33. Does that seem about right? Thanks for any help


Nick

Nick, any pressure over 30 is fine since your new tires have a higher load rating than stock tires. Play with the pressure between the front and rear to tune the handling to your taste.
