| Re: Tyre pressures.... Tyre pressures are relative to the weight of the car and not the size of the wheel or tyre. Whatever is recommended for OE size wheels and tyres should be the same for 17, 18 or whatever. The only variable is personal preference on handling.

| Re: Tyre pressures.... Personally I found on my wifes vrs that when the tyres were inflated to Skoda's recommended PSI the tyres wore on the inside and outside edge indicating under inflation. I can't remember what we now run them on but we're now getting a nice even wear accross the new tyres.
