Door sill sticker cold inflation recommendation...
Given all OEM equipment...how many of you follow the door sill sticker for cold inflation pressure? Thanks!

No, the door sill says something ridiculous like 39/44 ; it's very confusing.
Look in the owner's manual, it has pressures for an laden/unladen vehicle, winter/summer all that.
I think most people run something like 33/39
If I'm going on a long freeway trip or carrying a bunch of stuff I'll go with the higher pressure.

Agree, use owner's manual.

Thanks all! When I took delivery in november, it was at 33/39...I suspect with original German air!...I find manual and sticker contadictory so was asking opinions. Will maintain 33-34/39-40.

I run the sticker pressures 33/39 on my Bridgestones and use TPMS to monitor that I'm staying close. Various gauges (manual) tell me that my pressures are actually higher by maybe 3 lbs each but it seems to maximize performance and treadwear. I no longer have "factory air in every tire."
