    Me.... I am running the standard ones they recommend for a non loaded car (it was in the fuel flap I believe for the pressures).

    I put 39psi in the front and back as they tend to wear more evenly...

    44psi front and rear, as I tow a trailer reasonably often

    Everyone still agree with these pressures?

    Checked my car tonight and they had 46 psi which is the loaded recommendation. I lowered it to 39 as per the specs.

    Stick to the quoted pressures on the fuel flap sticker, VW and all other companys including the tyre manufactures spend millions on working out the correct pressure psi/bar to get the best ride, handling and wear out of the tyres for that certain car with that size/ rated tyres...Just make sure you check your pressures when they are cold if possible..........-VW-
