Default Quick Question: winter tire PSI

i have a set of 185/65/15 Yokohama Guardex 600 on my integra right now..
car has been stored for nearly 2 years. I am about to take it out for a few days just to have some fun.. and wonder what the correct PSI i should put on tires.. they seem to be really low right now.. i tried to put in 38PSI but still seem low to me.. any ideas???

If it has been stored for that long, there are likely a lot of things that should be checked before you do any serious driving.

Probably the best thing to do is put the stock pressure in. You'll need to check it when the weather gets cold because the colder, condensed air will have less pressure.

If you choose to put more than stock pressure in there, make sure you never put more than 5psi less than the max psi listed on the tire.

It should say on the side of the tire.

That's the max psi the tire can handle.
