Kilopascals show up on some Asian stickers and ISO sheets. 231 kPa front and 231 kPa rear is the Alfa Romeo 2000 midpoint (100 kPa = 1 bar). Size estimates on this page include 245/40R18, 225/50R17 and 215/55R16 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.

kPa, bar and PSI

kPa-led conversions. 220 kPa is 2.2 bar and about 32 psi — handy if this 2000 sticker uses SI units.

Estimated pressure by tyre size (245/40R18 and others)

If your Alfa Romeo 2000 no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 245/40R18 or 225/50R17 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.

Alfa Romeo 2000 placard versus sidewall

If the Alfa Romeo sticker is painted over, the handbook is next. This website is a map, not a replacement VIN label.

Temperature drift

Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this 2000.

How to set the 2000

  1. Park the Alfa Romeo 2000 for at least three hours (cold tyres).
  2. Use a calibrated gauge, not the only meter on a forecourt hose.
  3. Set the placard for that axle — about 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar front and 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar rear on this catalogue row.
  4. Recheck all four. A 2 psi miss on a front-wheel drive 2000 is enough to feel a pull.
  5. Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

Load notes

Load moves the rear of a passenger car first. If the factory placard already has a “laden” column, use that instead of these sketches.

Alfa Romeo notes

No special Alfa Romeo exception: the 2000 uses the door-pillar placard. Size estimates on this page only help if you have left the original load index behind.

Spare and inflator kit

A matching full-size spare on the Alfa Romeo 2000 usually follows the higher axle (often the rear, near 32-35 psi). A space-saver is commonly 60 psi / 4.1 bar — read that tyre’s own sidewall. An inflator kit is not a spare; check the sealant date.

If the Alfa Romeo sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this 2000

What is that in bar and kPa for the 2000?

Mid-points are about 2.31 bar (231 kPa) front and 2.31 bar (231 kPa) rear.

What tyre pressure should a Alfa Romeo 2000 use?

Catalogue reference is 32-35 psi front and 32-35 psi rear (2.2-2.4 / 2.2-2.4 bar), cold. Confirm on the door-pillar placard.

What PSI if I plus-size toward 215/55R16?

Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 245/40R18, 225/50R17 and 215/55R16 as a planning band.

How often should I check a 2000?

Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.

Is the sidewall number correct on a Alfa Romeo 2000?

No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The 2000 placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.
