I increased mine to full load when I have a boot load of luggage and two MTBs hanging off my Thule towbar rack….mainly due to the weight distribution

We're going to the lakes tomorrow as well. But straight across the Pennines.

The car will be packed to the rafters, but I never bother changing tyre pressure.


Nice, we'll be Windemere and Keswick way over the week. I'll keep an eye out for any other Macans.


In the end I left them at 35 and 38 psi. Felt like something of a nonsense compromise :lol:

Why not? I prefer PSI for the smaller increments.

It's just as easy to read in BAR as PSI.
