you should use the same as you did with your old tyres, look in drivers manual, it all depends on your engine capacity and what type of driving you do.

32 all round ive got, do not use 40, thats over filled and will effect handling as well.

When i first got my 17s, the tyres had 42psi in them! I went mental, Id got them from Ripspeed and they were supposed to be set up ready to bolt onto a corsa, all correct....glad i checked!

oh ok mine were at 40 coz thats what was in them when i bought them. thats probably why they feel skatey in the wet. i'll set them at the original 38F 35R.

38, 35?! The guide says 34, 32 or in most cases people go for 32, 32 or 32, 30.
38 is still too high IMO.

it definately says 38F 35R on my tyre placard. Maybe Aus spec corsas are set up differently.
