Proper tire inflation

Hello, for tire inflation, obtain a high quality gauge and then check for the sticker inside the driver's door that will indicate proper tire size, tire pressure, and load carrying capacity of the vehicle. This will indicate the proper "cold" pressure to set the ties to. As a side note, if these tires are indeed "original" and 11 years old, I would make one drive with the car: right to a tire retailer to replace the tires! The tires dry rot over time and after about only 5 years begin to be compromised for traction and structural integrity. You are at risk for tire failure by continuing to drive with these old tires. Good luck.

In addition > I strongly suggest purchasing the exact same tires as replacements .. 50,000 miles is *excellent* tire mileage!
