Got some new advan 048 on my cat. 185/14" Really happy about them since they are such an upgrade compare to the 12 year old tyres that came with the car. Mechanic who changed the tyres said he had put 2 bars in them wish is around 29 psi (cold). Does anyone know if thats to much or less for road use? Appreciate comments.
Best regards
Michael

Way too high, start at 18 psi and see how you feel, a lot of people run tyres less than this on Sevens. I find it's about right, but I haven't tried your tyres.

On my 13" wheels with Avon CR500 tyres, I have found 18 psi front and 20 rear is spot on.
