The rear of a passenger car takes passengers, luggage and, on vans, payload. Catalogue rear pressure on the Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer is 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar. Size estimates on this page include 225/50R17, 215/55R16 and 205/60R16 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.
Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer placard versus sidewall
Sidewall PSI is a carcass maximum. Recommended operating pressure for this Grand C4 SpaceTourer is the pillar sticker, near 34/34 psi.
Estimated pressure by tyre size (225/50R17 and others)
Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a passenger car. This Grand C4 SpaceTourer sample opens with 225/50R17, then 215/55R16 and 205/60R16.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 225/50R17 | — | 35 | — | 2.41 | — | 241 | Touring 17-inch |
| 215/55R16 | — | 35 | — | 2.41 | — | 241 | Slightly wider 16-inch |
| 205/60R16 | — | 34 | — | 2.34 | — | 234 | Taller 16-inch |
| 205/55R16 | — | 34 | — | 2.34 | — | 234 | Typical mid-compact OEM |
| 245/40R18 | — | 36 | — | 2.48 | — | 248 | Wide touring 18-inch |
| 195/65R15 | — | 34 | — | 2.34 | — | 234 | Very common compact |

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 | 34 psi / 2.34 bar | 34 psi / 2.34 bar |
| Full occupancy | 35 psi / 2.41 bar | 36 psi / 2.48 bar |
| Motorway + luggage | 36 psi / 2.48 bar | 37 psi / 2.55 bar |
A family passenger car with a boot full of luggage should use the laden rear figure if Ford, VW or Mercedes printed one. Otherwise the modest steps in the load table are only a sketch for this Grand C4 SpaceTourer.
How to set the Grand C4 SpaceTourer
- Park the Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer 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 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar front and 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar rear on this catalogue row.
- Recheck all four. A 2 psi miss on a front-wheel drive Grand C4 SpaceTourer is enough to feel a pull.
- Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

Temperature drift
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Grand C4 SpaceTourer.
| Ambient | Gauge (front mid) | Bar | kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −5 °C (hard frost) | 31 psi | 2.14 bar | 214 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 0 °C | 32 psi | 2.21 bar | 221 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 8 °C (UK winter morning) | 33 psi | 2.28 bar | 228 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 20 °C (set cold here) | 34 psi | 2.34 bar | 234 kPa | Baseline |
| 30 °C | 36 psi | 2.48 bar | 248 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
| 38 °C (heatwave tarmac) | 37 psi | 2.55 bar | 255 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
Citroen notes
No special Citroen exception: the Grand C4 SpaceTourer 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 Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer 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.
A cheap gauge and a monthly habit will do more for this Grand C4 SpaceTourer than nitrogen upsells.

Questions about this Grand C4 SpaceTourer
What is that in bar and kPa for the Grand C4 SpaceTourer?
Mid-points are about 2.31 bar (231 kPa) front and 2.31 bar (231 kPa) rear.
What tyre pressure should a Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer 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 205/60R16?
Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 225/50R17, 215/55R16 and 205/60R16 as a planning band.
Front versus rear on the Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer?
This row is 32-35 F / 32-35 R. Even when they match, a laden rear can justify a higher number if the sticker prints one.
Is the sidewall number correct on a Citroen Grand C4 SpaceTourer?
No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Grand C4 SpaceTourer placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.
