Q:
A: no, don't look on the tyres, that's just the max pressure, which isn't what you want to use. usually the tyre pressure is on a little label located somewhere on the car, i've seen the label mostly on the inside of the door, as in where it closes against the frame of the car. on my current car it's inside the fuel cap, of all places. if you check your owners manual, it will tell you where the label is, and then you can get the correct tyre pressure. if you don't have it, call the local dealer and they should be able to tell you where it is if you can't find it.
