Yes, 32 all round is the advice from the Dealer.

The 39 PSI (front) is if you are doing over 100 mph on a regular basis !!
Now while the A465 is nice and reasonably straight, the amount of Scamera vans on this road would soon see me off the road.

Adjusted the tyre pressures to 32 PSI all round and checked the spare wheel.
The wheels on the car are 18s - the spare in the boot is a 16 ??
If I get a puncture, I can only go 50mph (big sticker on the spare wheel telling me) - presumably straight to the nearest garage.

While I didn't expect to get an alloy in the boot, I would have thought the tyre should be the same size as the others - No ?!?
