Use the factory recommended setting you will get a better conering the persona will not goyang soo much at 120km-140km best . . . best. . . but I had to check it regularly now I pump 230

Proton's recommendation Is 210kg(31psi) front & 190kg(28psi) rear when tires are COLD. I think most of you would check your tire pressure at the petrol station. So after driving vehicle for about 5km-10Km or so, tires would have heated up & the hot air in the tires would have increase the pressure by at least 4 pounds. I have always measured the tire pressure of my car with my own gauge when tires are hot. Funny for Proton to recommend COLD reading.
So, I think 35 psi (front) & 32 psi (rear) would be OK/ideal if vehicle has been running for some time. Anything higher would make ride bumpy & will cause unnecessary vibrations in the car which may in turn be bad for some components in the car. But by looking at the hot tires, 35psi(frt) & 32psi(rr) seems under deflated. If you want to sacrifice comfort for better fuel consumption, by all means, inflate tires a bit more but not more than 40psi which I think that's why Proton inflate tires of new vehicles with this pressure.

Tyre pressure should always be checked when they are cold. Do any vehicle manufacturer recommend HOT reading

I'm using nitrogen instead of a normal air , it can last quite long.. till today it has been more than 3+ months and my tyre pressure still good ..

What tyres are you using? How about the tyres pressure and FC?
