Default Tyre pressures with aftermarket wheels??

Is there a website that'll work out the correct tyre pressure for different size [aftermarket or whatever] wheels and tyres than the manufacturer puts on? Can't find one on google

Or any hard and fast way of working it out?

cheers

Default

depends on what car really,between 28 to 33 psi .

i normally stick with the car manufactors guide.

the size effects the volume of air but psi (pressure)effects the bounce road handling etc..

size is not a matter for concern as long as u have stuck to the same rolling radius.

195/50/15 = 205/40/17 for example.
hope this helps
