1993 Chevy Astro Tire Pressure?

Asked by Matt2Penn Mar 10, 2022 at 01:13 PM about the 1993 Chevrolet Astro Extended RWD

Question type: Car Customization

Tire pressure on the door for my 93 chevy astro is 35psi with stock 215/75R15 tires and 6.5" wheels, but tires were changed to 245/60R15 with 8" rims.  Max pressure is 35psi for the front tires and 44 for the rear.  Am I supposed to put 35psi in the front and rear?  It is an extended CL RWD.

the new tires are smaller by an inch in diameter and an inch wider. The speedo will be slightly off. Run the same pressure as before and what is recommended by the sticker in the door jam if you are concerned. You can play with the pressure up or down a few psi to see what you like.
