A 3 psi miss on one front corner of this Caravelair shows up as a wander before the TPMS lamp bothers you. Target 55 psi (3.79 bar) cold. A 10 °C overnight drop takes roughly 1 psi (0.07 bar) off a closed Caravans-Wohnm tyre.
Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair placard versus sidewall
The tyre-information placard on a Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair sits on the driver’s door pillar (sometimes the fuel-filler flap). Catalogue figures here are a general band: 45-65 / 45-65 psi.
Estimated pressure by tyre size (185/65R15 and others)
Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a passenger car. This Caravelair sample opens with 185/65R15, then 205/55R16 and 195/65R15.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 185/65R15 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Small / older car |
| 205/55R16 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Typical mid-compact OEM |
| 195/65R15 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Very common compact |
| 215/50R17 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Plus-size 17-inch |
| 225/45R17 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Sport 17-inch |
| 245/40R18 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Wide touring 18-inch |
| 225/40R18 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Low-profile 18-inch |
| 215/55R16 | 50 | — | 3.45 | — | 345 | — | Slightly wider 16-inch |
Pressure against load
Load moves the rear of a passenger car first. If the factory placard already has a “laden” column, use that instead of these sketches.
| Condition | Front (est.) | Rear (est.) |
|---|---|---|
| Driver only | 50 psi / 3.45 bar | 50 psi / 3.45 bar |
| Full occupancy | 50 psi / 3.45 bar | 50 psi / 3.45 bar |
| Motorway + luggage | 50 psi / 3.45 bar | 50 psi / 3.45 bar |
Steering feel on the Caravelair lives on this axle. Do not drop front pressure to “soften” a plus-size 195/65R15; you will roll the sidewall in a roundabout.
How to set the Caravelair
- Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
- Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Caravelair numbers in your head.
- Add air in short bursts toward 55 psi (3.79 bar) front and 55 psi rear.
- If one corner is 4 psi down, hunt for a nail before you blame the weather.
- Log date, ambient temperature and the four readings.
PSI, bar and kPa
PSI-led conversions for the Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair band (45-65 / 45-65).
| PSI | Bar | kPa |
|---|---|---|
| 50 | 3.45 | 345 |
| 55 | 3.79 | 379 |
| 60 | 4.14 | 414 |
| 65 | 4.48 | 448 |
Temperature drift
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 55 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Caravelair.
| Ambient | Gauge (front mid) | Bar | kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −5 °C (hard frost) | 52 psi | 3.59 bar | 359 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 0 °C | 53 psi | 3.65 bar | 365 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 8 °C (UK winter morning) | 54 psi | 3.72 bar | 372 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 20 °C (set cold here) | 55 psi | 3.79 bar | 379 kPa | Baseline |
| 30 °C | 57 psi | 3.93 bar | 393 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
| 38 °C (heatwave tarmac) | 58 psi | 4 bar | 400 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
Caravans-Wohnm notes
No special Caravans-Wohnm exception: the Caravelair 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 Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair usually follows the higher axle (often the rear, near 45-65 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.
A cheap gauge and a monthly habit will do more for this Caravelair than nitrogen upsells.

Questions about this Caravelair
When does TPMS warn on a Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair?
Direct TPMS typically flags about 25% below placard — near 41 psi on this row. Fill to the sticker, not to the lamp.
Is the sidewall number correct on a Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair?
No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Caravelair placard is the operating target, near 45-65/45-65 psi.
What tyre pressure should a Caravans-Wohnm Caravelair use?
Catalogue reference is 45-65 psi front and 45-65 psi rear (3.1-4.5 / 3.1-4.5 bar), cold. Confirm on the door-pillar placard.
What is that in bar and kPa for the Caravelair?
Mid-points are about 3.79 bar (379 kPa) front and 3.79 bar (379 kPa) rear.
How often should I check a Caravelair?
Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.
