i looked but there is nothing to do with tyre pressure, just the model of the car and engine size.

check your door panel, and the tire, add them up and divide by 2, you should get around 37-40 psi, don't go over 44psi

il go look for you :)

32psi for the normal 4
60psi for the spare

this is off the service manual, and it says 39-40psi ±2 psi, like i said don't go over 44 psi.

i got mine off the side of my door

i noticed the tire manufacture, and i have the same tire, mine says 39 psi, that what the tie manufacture recommends for the best tire tread ware.

lol ya i was gonna say, don't all tires tell you the aprox. recommended psi?

i just filled up 32 psi and its good, thanks guys :)

32 is what dealers will fill them to, most honda's (exceptions being new model ody tourings, and some accessory wheel packages) call for 32.

All tyres are different, always go by what the tyre states

and they all have a max psi rating on them

just wondering bro where abouts on the tyre does it say 39?

just check the tire. put around 5 psi lower than the max

That's generally max pressure. I tend to run around 34 to 36

I find that 36psi seems to work well

LOL!!!! good come back. but seriously how? who? why? dosent someone know this info, who is even just a little bit into cars? its like asking "what fluid do I put in this thing to make it run"?

Dont be a douche bag? It was a simple question he was wondering about.You coulda saved your time and kept your opinion out of the thread.He already got his answer and didnt need your extra comment

Jesus! my bad....... didnt mean to upset anyone.

Tyre pressure is always a good question, because everybody has a different opinion on what to run; and this opinion is almost always different from what the factory says you should run.

When the factory tell you what pressure to run, they are thinking of a number of things in a certain order of priority. With the luxury nature of a Prelude, comfort is likely at the top of the list, with handling a bit lower down.

Many have found that running slightly higher pressure than what the factory reccommend is advantageous, helping the car handle that little bit better; while increasing pressure too much will have the opposite effect.

realistically tyre pressure is and should be determined by the climate in which you live. if its cold and wet then u should run a lower psi and if its hot and dry then a higher psi.
