Just had a major service at a trusted independent. They advised the rear tyres are worn to 3mm on the outer and inner edges, suggesting under-inflation. This is annoying because I religiously check the pressures once a month and follow the specification on the door sticker.
It's a 2005 B5.5 Highline with 15" wheels, the sticker says unloaded it shouldn't be more than 33 front and 30 rear so this is what I do most of the time. When it's loaded up when we're off on holiday I run 35 all round.
Clearly I'm not putting enough in the rears though, maybe the pressure needed for Avons is different from the OEM tyres?
Now I'm thinking I should run at 35 all round all the time to avoid this happening again.. is that safe or too much?
