yes its 30 psi
but now you can have the pleasure of low low profiles you carnt realy tell if flat
or ok
Especially if parked two wheels on two off a Kerbside
when you drive away you hear that nasty noise "FLAT FOOKED Tyre"
if your driving fast

take my advice buy a air compressor and join the test the air every few days

just got 2 new skins on the back of mine paid £128 ..."right ones gone down"
4 times since friday afternoon so back in work tonight pump up again



finish work bout 3am pump up again
goto garage 920 AM

if i didnt have a "air compressor "
WOULD HAVE BEEN REAL FOOKED

so would he have been as im on £15 a hour overtime
and its not monday yet
