3.79 / 3.79 bar · 45-65 / 45-65 psi
45-65 psi F · 45-65 psi R · 3.1-4.5 / 3.1-4.5 bar · 379/379 kPa
Kilopascals show up on some Asian stickers and ISO sheets. 379 kPa front and 379 kPa rear is the Caravans-Wohnm Gigant midpoint (100 kPa = 1 bar). TPMS typically warns near 41 psi (about 25% below target). That is already a soft tyre, not a fill target.
kPa, bar and PSI
kPa-led conversions. 220 kPa is 2.2 bar and about 32 psi — handy if this Gigant sticker uses SI units.
| kPa | Bar | PSI |
|---|---|---|
| 345 | 3.45 | 50 |
| 379 | 3.79 | 55 |
| 414 | 4.14 | 60 |
| 448 | 4.48 | 65 |
Estimated pressure by tyre size (205/60R16 and others)
If your Caravans-Wohnm Gigant no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 205/60R16 or 225/40R18 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 205/60R16 | 50 | 50 | 3.45 | 3.45 | 345 | 345 | Taller 16-inch |
| 225/40R18 | 50 | 50 | 3.45 | 3.45 | 345 | 345 | Low-profile 18-inch |
| 225/45R17 | 50 | 50 | 3.45 | 3.45 | 345 | 345 | Sport 17-inch |
| 245/40R18 | 50 | 50 | 3.45 | 3.45 | 345 | 345 | Wide touring 18-inch |
| 215/50R17 | 50 | 50 | 3.45 | 3.45 | 345 | 345 | Plus-size 17-inch |
| 205/55R16 | 50 | 50 | 3.45 | 3.45 | 345 | 345 | Typical mid-compact OEM |

Caravans-Wohnm Gigant placard versus sidewall
Sidewall PSI is a carcass maximum. Recommended operating pressure for this Gigant is the pillar sticker, near 55/55 psi.
Temperature drift
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 55 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Gigant.
| 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 |
How to set the Gigant
- Park the Caravans-Wohnm Gigant for at least three hours (cold tyres).
- Use a calibrated gauge, not the only meter on a forecourt hose.
- Set the placard for that axle — about 45-65 psi / 3.1-4.5 bar front and 45-65 psi / 3.1-4.5 bar rear on this catalogue row.
- Recheck all four. A 2 psi miss on a front-wheel drive Gigant is enough to feel a pull.
- 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.
| 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 |
Caravans-Wohnm notes
No special Caravans-Wohnm exception: the Gigant 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 Gigant 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.
Keep the Caravans-Wohnm Gigant on the printed band; use 205/60R16 and 225/45R17 only as a map for non-OEM wheels.

Questions about this Gigant
What is that in bar and kPa for the Gigant?
Mid-points are about 3.79 bar (379 kPa) front and 3.79 bar (379 kPa) rear.
Should I bleed pressure after a motorway run?
No. Heat raises the gauge. Set cold only. Bleeding a hot tyre leaves it low the next morning.
How often should I check a Gigant?
Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.
What PSI if I plus-size toward 225/45R17?
Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 205/60R16, 225/40R18 and 225/45R17 as a planning band.
What tyre pressure should a Caravans-Wohnm Gigant 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.
