Tire pressure for the stock 17 inch run flats
#4
>>What is the best pressure at which to keep these tires? They say max of 51psi. They came delivered with 33 psi.
51 psi max is the maximum pressure for that tire. It doesn't mean you should run that pressure.
Each car has a recommended pressure and yours is on the metal plate inside the driver's door jam. Look at the size wheels and tires you have and match how many people are in the car.
33 psi is fine for 2 people and 37 psi is fine for 4 people for the MCS with 17" wheels. Read your psi off the plate if you have the MC. You can choose something in between if you want or just run the higher number of the two in case you need to take some passengers for a ride.

A lot of dealers forget to pump the tires...including mine!
When i bought my car, it only had about 25psi.
