Hi
Could anyone tell me what the tyre pressures are for my brava with 195/50/r15 tyres? is it the same as standard (2.2 psi)

2.2 psi is virtually a flat tyre. it should be around 30 - 32 psi.

I think you mean 2.2 bar

contrary to popular belief,the psi doesn't increase just cos the size of the rim does

the pressure you should use depends on your driving. on a brava with 195/50/15 tyres i would use 35psi front and 33psi rear for high speed and enthusiastic driving, or 32psi front and 30psi rear for a more comfortable ride with better grip (and increased tyre wear). it really is up to you, there is no rule that you must use a certain psi. sometimes i have used 40psi (for GPS top speed record setting) and sometimes i have used 25psi (for traffic light drag racing lol). it depends on the situation.
