Golf GTI Tyre pressures?
« on: 17 March 2014, 00:28 »
I recently bought a 2.0 GTI, can anyone tell me the correct tyre pressures for a 2000 Golf 2.0 GTI please?
Thank you.

Thank you guys. I'll pop in to Morrisons one night this week and see what i'm riding on. Early 30's seem to be about the right psi.

The wheels on my car are 19".

Even with the bigger wheels, standard pressures will be fine that is what I ran in my 18"s
