Hi all,

What is the ideal tyre pressure for the ? I've tried checking the manual out, but it's not very helpful... I used to have my 2 front tyres at 32 and the 2 rear tyres at 30 on my Zetec S.

Thanks!

It should say on the car, have a look on the door surround when its open Not sure if the zetec s is the same but I'm sure the is 32 at the front and about 28? for the rear. Will check when I leave wort at 3, these figures ate for 1 person in the car.
