On what car?

I run my SQ5 21s at the door sticker recommendation. 35 front, 32 rear. Only ever with two people.

Title says SQ5 21'' tyre pressure . Thanks for the reply, I will adjust mine as I run 35 psi all around.

Title actually says 21” Factory alloy wheel tyre pressure but is in the right section for Q cars and SQ

The SQ5 bit isn't obvious in Tapatalk and it only shows '21'' Factory Alloy Wheel tyre Pressure.', thus why I asked.

Running mine (2016 SQ5) at 32psi fronts and 28psi rears; new Dunlop's so I'm able to observe the 'fraise' wear and as yet that's even across the tyre face both front and rear; two up mind and zero weight in the boot...

When changing my front Pirelli tyres @ 19K miles I photographed the wear pattern (excuse the 'comfort' shoe); these were at 33psi hence the slight centre wear:

Interesting RS3 S., For how long? And the 'wear' across the tread face is what? Even? Hollowed? Rounded?

I'm on new Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 255/40 R21 Y (12) XL R01 front and rear... :racer:
 
It looks fine so far. Mine are the ones shown in my avatar picture. 2018 model, but dont think that would make much difference?.

...............also that's what is stated by the factory.

I guess I'd use them pressures if driving in Germany - or France, Spain and Italy, etc., for that matter - , too

Been watching lots of Pro-cycling recently and even on yesterday's Liege-Baston-Liege the road surfaces were just amazingly smooooooooth and free of our typical pot-holes and dropped-grids and 20cm high repairs - not to mention our now numerous speed cushions that are now breaking up; sorry - just practising for local election canvasers...!!!
