6mtV6

This past weekend I decided to check my front tires. They seem a little low on air. It was like this when I first got the car but never really looked into it. The tires were a little under 30psi. Maybe 29 or 28. So I filled them up to 35psi.

The next day I went to NJ. While driving on the turnpike I notice the vibration at 75mph and up. When I drove on the I287 going about 75mph and up, there is no vibration.

Before I filled my tires to 35psi, I had vibration but it was not severe. It comes and goes. It wasn't that noticeable. But when I filled it to 35psi, the vibration is more noticeable. It only occurs 80mph and up. It also only occurs on the turnpike. It never occurs on any other highways I drive on.

I'm thinking it's the tires.

It's the tire tread pattern, the road surface texture, and that particular pressure all coming together. A few PSI difference in pressure can make quite a difference.

But EL42's aren't the best tires, that much is certain.

i thought the psi was supposed to be 32 (dont have my manual at work, going on memory)

My EL 42's are supposed to be at 32 psi. Check inside the front driver door on the side.

For the 5at it's 32psi. But for the 6mt the front tires are 35psi.
