Friends: 0 | Re: 2010 Tire Pressures for Yokohama 15" I recommend at least sidewall pressure. I left the dealership and stopped at the gas station across the street and took them to 51 front and 50 rear and drove to Virginia. I was surprised to find the pressure from the dealership at 39 rear and 41 front. No problems and it handled well. On our return trip, I drove through rain for about 150 miles including one torrential downpour that had the interstate traffic slowed to 35 mph.

Friends: 18 | Re: 2010 Tire Pressures for Yokohama 15" MAX Sidewall on the Yokos is 44psi. I'm running 40/38. I reset Trip A and Trip B at last fillup. I reset Trip B again after bumping tire pressures 75-100 miles into the tank. Trip B reads about 1-1.5mpg higher than Trip A. At the initial inflation, I saw 60+mpg, but then my commute set in.  |

Friends: 0 | Re: 2010 Tire Pressures for Yokohama 15" 2010 Prius III with Navi: I inflated my Yoko's to max sidewall pressure on all 4 tires, 44 PSI, when we purchased the car on 05/17/09. No problem with handling, MPG is averaging over 51 MPG for 3,000 miles, based on gas pumped and miles driven. Alfon |

Friends: 0 | Re: 2010 Tire Pressures for Yokohama 15" I'm a bit confused. It finally stopped raining here today so I had a chance to check the tires. MY tires say "40 PSI max" the door label says 35/35!!!!! they were not properly inflated in any way! it's been cool here so i went 38/36. where are you finding 44 pSI?? thanks! |

Friends: 18 | Re: 2010 Tire Pressures for Yokohama 15" 40 PSI max is for seating the bead to the rim. 44psi is the max cold pressure. |
