Mikef Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 I'm whizzing off to Cornwall this weekend, two adults, two small kids, and enough stuff in the boot to make you think we were off on an amazonian expedtition... So, for the trip down I'll inflate the tyres up to the max setting. While I'm actually there, and driving around with an empty boot, I wasn't planning on reducing the tyre pressure for the sake of 2 weeks before I head back home. Does the team think thats a good idea? Or should I reduce the pressure, then pump them back up again for the trip home? cheers all mikef Quote
Guest JohnP Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 In theory yes; I didn't and didn't notice anything untoward. Cornwall's not a big county - you'll not be doing many miles, and roads are narrower - you'll not be speeding!Have a great holiday, I did (Falmouth)John Quote
Andrew T Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 Just done the same thing myself and I didn't bother deflating the tyres, even though I carry a small compressor. The only noticeable differance was a lot of road noise when driving unladen. Quote
Mikef Posted August 13, 2004 Author Report Posted August 13, 2004 Thanks both. I get so much road noise I doubt I will notice the difference! cheers mikef Quote
