I recently purchased a set of O.Z with P215/35WR-18 Pirelli PZero Nero M&S XL.

The tires came with 40 psi but somehow they seemed to be slightly on the flat side to me. Is it just because of the low profile look or should I be running at higher pressure?

Thanks in advance for all comments and advises!

 

For all MINIs you always follow the recommended tire pressures on the door jam plate of the driver's side.

Doesn't matter what the tire looks like if you have the correct psi inflation.

For the MC about 34-35 psi and for the MCS about 35-37 psi especially with four people.

I don't recommend 40 psi to any MINI owner for general use.

Check tire pressures first thing in the morning when tires are cold.

If the tires were checked in the sun or late afternoon they might be slightly higher than in the early morning.

 

Thanks alot for the reply. I will check again in the morning when the tire is cold.
