What are the `correct` pressures for General Altimax One (or Comfort) on 195/65r15 on an Audi A3 1.6tdi mk2 2010. Show more What are the `correct` pressures for General Altimax One (or Comfort) on 195/65r15 on an Audi A3 1.6tdi mk2 2010. If not precise, I`m thinking for economy, sedate driving. Currently at 36 front 30 rear, but so comfy on ride I could go higher, say 36 all round or 40 front 36 rear? Show less

Always start with the factory recommended pressure whatever the tire. How much you play with the pressures around this is up to you but we wouldn't recommend flexing more than a few PSI each way.
General Altimax Comfort Owner Reviews
Review this tireWhat owners say summarised from 6 reviews
The General Altimax Comfort has a mixed and very limited owner record, with ride comfort the most consistent positive, praised by two of six owners. Its 33% average score needs care: two zero-score reviews are favorable in their text, while another refers readers to a different model. One mid-life owner reported 5.5mm of tread remaining after 12,000 miles, but there is too little longer-term experience to judge wear reliably. Half the reviews were written when the tire was new, so they offer little insight into how it performs as it ages. There is no repeat-owner evidence to help establish changes over time.

I reside in South Africa. Tires does not last more than 3000 km before generating small holes on running surfaces causing tires to deflate by plus minus 1 bar per day. Damage to tires where leaks occur almost not visible. Checked with different suppliers. They have experienced the same. Damage not covered by guarantee. Factory reluctant to acknowledge the problem and compensate customers.
