GM / General Motors: 2000 Z24 Tire Pressures

2000 Z24 Tire Pressures
The sticker with the recommended tire pressures on the driver's door
is illegible on the Z24 that my son's bought. I also can't find it in
the owner's handbook. It has 205/65x16 tires. Does anyone out there
have this information?

It should be on the tire.

Re: 2000 Z24 Tire Pressures
30 PSI is a typical GM recommended pressure in a passenger car. Don't
listen to any idiot who tells you to run the pressure listed on the tire, if
you read the info on the tire, is says "MAX" pressure, not recommended.

Re: 2000 Z24 Tire Pressures
I've never seen a tire list two pressures. In any case, the recommended
pressure listed on the tire is fairly meaningless, because it doesn't take
into account the type of vehicle it's being used on.

Seems to be 30 psi front and rear in all '00 Cavaliers except the
convertible models, which have 28 in the rear.

It will be 30 psi. By the way, almost any GM car except for something
like the Corvette...will specify about 30 lbs for tire pressure. You really
can't go wrong using that basic pressure.
Trucks are the ones that are all over the place, definitely makes a
difference depending on what size truck, and what kind of tires it
has.

Thanks Robert. I've written the correct pressures with a big marker
near the door striker assembly! Sol......

Re: 2000 Z24 Tire Pressures
When I bought a used GM car I had the same question and settled on 30
front and rear.
You did get some good advice, but consider that, as was mentioned, the
tire manufacturer doesn't know what kind of vehicle the tire will be
used on and tire pressure can really affect the stability and road
handling of the car. (The race car techs walk around with a tire
guage in their pocket because proper pressure really does affect
handling) Never use the pressure on the tire, and don't believe that
pressure should be reduced if the tire is used in very hot areas.
The pressure should be checked when the tire is cold, and will not
increase to failure levels no matter how darned hot the road and
climate is. I had occasion to visit a plant once where they tested
tires, and once in a while one would blow off the rim at about 600 lbs
per inch.
