Check the factory difference on same tyre size! I can only assume g60 is so high as its for autobahn etc!

something aint right there. 38psi seems way to much for any normal car tyre.

Aye it struck me as odd, the only seen something like that on the bosses A6 avant but its huge

being repo stickers we need a g60 owner to confirm this with an original sticker

and its not like a g60 is a lot heavier than a gti. I tend to stick to 32 front 28 rear.

The second ebay link is the correct sticker on a G60 (191 010 040J).

Probably just put there to see if anyone actually notices it - German sense of humour!
