it shows mine as 33 front's and 32 rears

yeah that what i put in mine.
do yours always look half flat at the front?

[freaky fingers]

yup, will look even more flat for your 17's tis the way they are, is the label still there inside the petrol cap showing the tyre sizes and psi ? if so just follow the reccomendations

i normally put 36 in mine but then i tow a caravan quite a bit with mine

havnt looked inside the cap yet. mine have 33 in the front but still seem to be sitting on the tyre side walls.

[jonno12]

Hello there,
I run my V70 R AWD on Vredestein Ultrac's 215/45 ZR 17 at 44psi front and rear. Which I was advised by the Vredestein company rep, when I asked them for advice.

[adey]

yes that would be ok , i drive mine hard and plant it in to bends and it holds just fine . when i was running 32 psi it slid into and out of the bends
