UK winter mornings will show a lower gauge on this F8 Tributo without a puncture. Set 34/34 psi at ~20 °C equivalent, not after a motorway blast. Under-inflation cooks the shoulders of a F8 Tributo; over-inflation wears the centre rib and bangs every cat’s eye.
Temperature and a cold gauge
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this F8 Tributo.
| 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 |
How to set the F8 Tributo
- Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
- Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep F8 Tributo numbers in your head.
- Add air in short bursts toward 34 psi (2.31 bar) front and 34 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.
Ferrari F8 Tributo placard versus sidewall
The tyre-information placard on a Ferrari F8 Tributo sits on the driver’s door pillar (sometimes the fuel-filler flap). Catalogue figures here are a general band: 32-35 / 32-35 psi.
Estimated pressure by tyre size (275/35R18 and others)
Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a passenger car. This F8 Tributo sample opens with 275/35R18, then 275/30R19 and 255/35R18.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 275/35R18 | 36 | 37 | 2.48 | 2.55 | 248 | 255 | Wide rear |
| 275/30R19 | 36 | 37 | 2.48 | 2.55 | 248 | 255 | Rear 19-inch |
| 255/35R18 | 35 | 36 | 2.41 | 2.48 | 241 | 248 | Rear stagger 18-inch |

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 | 34 psi / 2.34 bar | 34 psi / 2.34 bar |
| Full occupancy | 34 psi / 2.34 bar | 35 psi / 2.41 bar |
| Motorway + luggage | 35 psi / 2.41 bar | 37 psi / 2.55 bar |
Ferrari notes
No special Ferrari exception: the F8 Tributo 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 Ferrari F8 Tributo 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 F8 Tributo than nitrogen upsells.

Questions about this F8 Tributo
Front versus rear on the Ferrari F8 Tributo?
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.
What is that in bar and kPa for the F8 Tributo?
Mid-points are about 2.31 bar (231 kPa) front and 2.31 bar (231 kPa) rear.
What tyre pressure should a Ferrari F8 Tributo 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.
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.
What PSI if I plus-size toward 255/35R18?
Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 275/35R18, 275/30R19 and 255/35R18 as a planning band.
