Optimum tire PSI depends not on the particular tire, but on the overall weight and weight distribution of the car. The idea is to keep the tire's contact patch consistent.

Obviously the weight and distribution would be the same, but would different tire/wheel combinations r; /html/mgs/1997-05/msg01318.html (7,986 bytes)

I once read in _european car_ that the optimum PSI was unrelated to tire/wheel size; IOW, when going to larger wheels or wider tires, the OEM recommended tire pressures were; /html/mgs/1997-05/msg01325.html (8,115 bytes)
