Tire pressure question.

I have the 21" wheels and tires on my Camaro and can not find the correct tire pressure. Is it the same as the 20"?

Recommended tire pressure should be identified on the door pillar.

It has the pressure for the 20" tires. I was just wondering if the 21's were the same.

tire filling

I experimented with nitrogen and did not find enough difference to justify the cost, but I did make a tire filling apparatus to fill all four tires at once. what is nice about this all your tires will balance out evenly and you can actually see if your pressure sensors are accuate. mine seem to stay within about 1 to 2 lbs. so far I have not found anything better. Good luck

No way! Isn't it dangerous to mix Nitrogen and "air" in your tires?
