195/55 slowed my car down - Toyota Yaris Forums

ok, so at cool temperatures, the tires were all more or less 35psi this morning. when they are warmed up, they drive a lot better, I'm wondering if I should keep them at 35, eventhough they recommend 32 for the car, or even go up to 36 (the tires max psi is like 50 or something obscene).

I have to admit I have the OEM tires at 36 cold right now. It seems to be about right for the way I drive.
On the old car, with 205/45-16 rubber, I had them all at 42.

YMMV
