Tire pressure (17 inch rims)
Hi all. What pressure should I set my tires to if I have put on 17 inch rims and different tires than the car came with? The Honda dealership suggested inflating them a little higher than the usual pressures.
thanks,

Also, remember that reccomended tire pressure ratings are for cold tires, so fill up sometime when they haven't been driven on for a few hours.

Don't even worry about exceeding the max sidewall. They are safe many times higher than the rating. Over at http://www.cleanmpg.com there was an article in one of our forums that shows how some police training vehicles exceed the max PSI and the reason they don't exceed it on the street is for liability reasons and not safety reasons.
