In Reply to: 95 540i w/ M5 Wheels - Recommended Tire Pressure posted by daniel duncan on April 19, 2001 at 21:25:13:


Does anyone know the recommended tire pressures for the 95 M5 wheel & tire combination on the E34?

Unless you are still running on the original tires don't bother with the door recommendations: read the tires themselves. The max psi indicated there is the recommended 'all day while hitting potholes without a blowout' pressure. On newer performance tires these pressures are usually upwards from 44psi. Lower pressures increase heat and tire wear and decrease cornerning ability. Performance handling would call for pressures *over* those indicated on the tires.
