Snow Tire Pressure

sgt3966 · 09-30-2017, 01:28 PM

I am buying a set of Wheels and Snow Tires. It was suggested that the Snow tires be the same size all around as opposed to what is on the car now. The tires that are on the car now are the stock tires and wheels ( Front: 225/40 R 18, Rear: 255/35 R 18). I was told to go with 225/40 R 18's all around. I will be getting:Blizzak LM-60 RFT - Size: 225/40R18 (Run-Flats). My question is since the different size stock tires call for different tire pressures, what would be the proper tire pressure for these snow tires? I was thinking that since the front tires, which are the same size as the snow's that I am getting (225/40 R 18) call for a tire pressure of 36 PSI, that I should go with that pressure. What do you think?
