Does anyone know what the recommended tyre pressures are for my recently purchased Ledbury Maestro? I found that the fronts were about 26psi, which is the same as I've run my other 1.3 Maestros at, but the rears were both down at about 20psi, which is a lot lower than the 28psi I've worked to previously.

28-30 front and 30-32 rear has always worked for me. It depends on the tyres and driving conditions.

I've always seen it the other way round, to counteract the weight of the engine and the fact the fronts do the steering, too...

Thanks guys.
I couldn't think of any reason why the pressures should be much different from the non-Ledbury cars, which are stated as 26 front and 28 rear in the handbook. Your replies reinforce this opinion and I'll certainly increase the pressure in the rears.
