Mazda 323 Fuel & Tyre Pressure

[Thusiwi]

I have 323 1.3L, Manual, YOM 2002 car. It does average 14 Km per Leter in outstation. Any of you have better idea about what is the optimum per Leter milage for out station & City.

And what is the best suitable tyre pressure for the size 175/70/14.

And what is the best suitable tyre pressure for the size 175/70/14.

Hard to say just from the tyre size. Do you have a pressure guide on the car anywhere? e.g. driver door jamb, or maybe in the manual somewhere (even if it's in japanese you should be able to figure out the numbers)

the numbers I have (don't know if it varies by manufacturer/country of origin) are in Bars. so I have 2.3 bars = 33.5 psi front and rear (and if car is heavily loaded, 2.7 bars for the back)

but these numbers will be for the default tyre that came with the car. If you've plus-sized then maybe it changes a bit.

Thanks for your Tip. I will check mine too.

I used 30 psi but it was too much. Now I use 27 psi for all 4 & seems OK. But i do not know whether it is good for the Tyres & the performance.
