It is recommended to check your tyre pressure at least once a month and before any long road trips.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your vehicle is compatible with the 255/35 R19 specifications by checking your owner's manual or current tyre sidewall markings. Proper inflation is critical; verify the manufacturer's recommended PSI, as incorrect pressure will negatively impact both grip and tread life. To maximize the longevity of these tyres, perform regular rotations every 5,000 to 8,000 miles and have your wheel alignment checked annually to prevent uneven wear patterns.
