Put your reg in and we'll show the figures for your exact car, including the wheel size it left the factory on.

What tyre pressure should a 75 have?

30 psi at the front and 28 psi at the rear (2.1 and 1.9 bar) on the standard 16-inch wheels, with the tyres cold.

Should I use a higher pressure when the car is loaded?

The manufacturer gives one figure for this car, so no. If you're carrying a full load for a long motorway run, the label on the door pillar may show a higher figure — follow that if it does.

What tyre size does the 75 use?

215/55R16. The size is on the tyre's sidewall, e.g. 235/40R18.

Check them cold. Pressures are set for tyres that haven't been driven more than a mile or two. After a run they read 3–4 psi high.

Once a month, and before a long trip. Tyres lose about 1 psi a month on their own.

The sticker wins. If your car's door-pillar or fuel-flap label says something different, go with that — it knows your exact spec.
