How much PSI/BAR are you supposed to have in our tyres?

If your door sticker says 60 PSI, someone made a serious mistake in the factory. |

I think the pressures are the same whichever tyres/wheels you run (at least the factory combinations) - like MDP said I think it's around 36psi per wheel. 60psi is definitely not right and I would deflate them back to the mid 30s asap.

Front tires s/b 38 psi, rear s/b 42 psi. This is regardless of size (the tag on my HSE lists all size wheels, from 17 to 20", and the recommended inflation pressure is identical for all of them.) I just got 21" rims and used the same numbers, as recommended by the vendor. I think you may want to go a bit above that only on very low profile rims (22" and up), but not by much. 60 psi is well above the maximum inflation pressure recommended by tire manufacturers, let alone Land Rover. Your tires will explode!

Kam, 60psi is the pressure we inflate the tyres too before they leave the factory.
