Currently, I am running my tyres at 30psi all round (driver only - mainly motorway driving). These pressures were 'recommended' when I had new tyres fitted all round a few weeks ago.

The tyres themselves appear to 'bulge' more than I would expect (it's the 1st time I've ever run low-profile tyres). Are these pressures correct or what would you advise??

The size is - 20 40/295.

Thanks in advance.

Ther tyre pressure stay the same as recommended for what ever size is fitted, as you have a very low profile I would go for 33 to stop wheel damage

All round?

And what would you suggest for medium-loaded continuous motorway (driving down to Spain.!)?

Thanks

Just go a couple of lbs over what it says in the petrol flap, you will not go wrong with that
