Tyre pressures

[wyefish]

I have 215/55 17 tyres all round on my Bongo. I'm a bit unsure as to the correct pressures to apply. Your collective wisdom would be most helpful!

I have standard steel wheels and run 38 psi front 40 psi rear.

There is a calculator for caravan tyres which is worth a look:

Just remember Bongy has 4 wheels, not 2.

As you're not running standard wheels it might have to be a bit of experimenting however I have run 18" and now 15" and have both of them set to 40psi all round for convenience but also because it seems to give best suspension/fuel economy etc

I tend to stick to 40 all round as I'm usually carrying a bit of weight (Don't go there) or towing a small trailer. Plus - it's easier to remember!

I think all Bongo's carry a bit of weight to be fair Jilly!

(PS that was very tongue in cheek earlier on the now locked post, just very fed up with the negativity)

Thanks to everyone! Good advice, as usual. I'm off with the old girl on a boat to Spain on Saturday. Hoping to spend a bit of quality time touring around with my two best girls (one being our faithful old Bongo).
