On a e.GO Life 60 the useful pair is 34 psi (2.31 bar) up front and 34 psi (2.31 bar) at the back, mid-range. TPMS typically warns near 25 psi (about 25% below target). That is already a soft tyre, not a fill target.

e.GO notes

No special e.GO exception: the Life 60 uses the door-pillar placard. Size estimates on this page only help if you have left the original load index behind.

PSI, bar and kPa

1 bar ≈ 14.5 psi; 1 psi ≈ 6.89 kPa. Mid-points on the Life 60: 34 psi = 2.31 bar = 231 kPa.

How to set the Life 60

  1. Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
  2. Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Life 60 numbers in your head.
  3. Add air in short bursts toward 34 psi (2.31 bar) front and 34 psi rear.
  4. If one corner is 4 psi down, hunt for a nail before you blame the weather.
  5. Log date, ambient temperature and the four readings.

e.GO Life 60 placard versus sidewall

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

Spare and inflator kit

A matching full-size spare on the e.GO Life 60 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.

Temperature and a cold gauge

Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Life 60.

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.

Estimated pressure by tyre size (215/55R16 and others)

If your e.GO Life 60 no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 215/55R16 or 225/40R18 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.

Keep the e.GO Life 60 on the printed band; use 215/55R16 and 215/50R17 only as a map for non-OEM wheels.

Other e.GO models

Questions about this Life 60

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.

Is the sidewall number correct on a e.GO Life 60?

No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Life 60 placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.

How often should I check a Life 60?

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

When does TPMS warn on a e.GO Life 60?

Direct TPMS typically flags about 25% below placard — near 25 psi on this row. Fill to the sticker, not to the lamp.

What tyre pressure should a e.GO Life 60 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.
