* Vehicle Specific: The correct tire pressure depends on the specific model and year of your Hiace van. The information is usually found in your owner's manual.
* Load: The amount of weight you carry in the van also affects the ideal tire pressure.
* Tire Type: Different tire types have different pressure recommendations.
Where to Find the Correct Air Pressure:
1. Owner's Manual: The most reliable source. It will usually list the recommended tire pressure for various load conditions.
2. Sticker on the Driver's Side Doorjamb: Many vehicles have a sticker with the recommended tire pressure located on the driver's side doorjamb or on the driver's side door itself.
3. Tire Sidewall: The tire's sidewall will have a maximum pressure rating. However, this is not the recommended pressure, but rather the maximum the tire can safely handle.
Important Considerations:
* Overinflation: Overinflating your tires can make your ride uncomfortable, decrease traction, and cause uneven tire wear.
* Underinflation: Underinflation can lead to increased fuel consumption, tire wear, and a risk of tire failure.
Always consult your owner's manual or the tire information sticker for the most accurate air pressure recommendation for your specific Toyota Hiace van.
