I just scored a nice set of used factory 17 inch wheels and tires. But I don't know what the pressure settings should be for the 215/45-17 tires (factory original Kumos, I think)
Does anyone on this forum own a 2009-2011 Focus SES with the 17 inch wheels and 215/45-17 tires. If so, could you please check your door sticker and tell me the recommended pressures F/R?
If it matters, they are going on a 2005 ZX5 SES.
Thanks,
Bob the Duck Canuck
