A front-wheel drive Foton View Grand still wants even corners. 2.4-3.1 vs 3.1-4.5 is an axle split, not a left-right split. Size estimates on this page include LT265/70R17, 275/65R18 and 285/70R17 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.
Bar, PSI and kPa
Bar-led conversions around the Foton View Grand. 2.4-3.1 bar is not “35-45 divided by ten”.

| 2.48 | 36 | 248 |
| 2.62 | 38 | 262 |

Foton View Grand placard versus sidewall
The tyre-information placard on a Foton View Grand sits on the driver’s door pillar (sometimes the fuel-filler flap). Catalogue figures here are a general band: 35-45 / 45-65 psi.
Estimated pressure by tyre size (LT265/70R17 and others)
If your Foton View Grand no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest LT265/70R17 or 275/65R18 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LT265/70R17 | 48 | 69 | 3.31 | 4.76 | 331 | 476 | LT 17-inch |
| 275/65R18 | 43 | 61 | 2.96 | 4.21 | 296 | 421 | Plus-size 18-inch |
| 285/70R17 | 44 | 62 | 3.03 | 4.27 | 303 | 427 | Wide all-terrain |
| 255/65R17 | 43 | 60 | 2.96 | 4.14 | 296 | 414 | Highway 17-inch |
| 265/70R17 | 43 | 60 | 2.96 | 4.14 | 296 | 414 | Typical 17-inch load tyre |
| 245/70R16 | 42 | 59 | 2.9 | 4.07 | 290 | 407 | Common 16-inch all-terrain |
| 235/75R15 | 41 | 58 | 2.83 | 4 | 283 | 400 | Older compact truck |

Load notes
Load moves the rear of a light commercial first. If the factory placard already has a “laden” column, use that instead of these sketches.
| Condition | Front (est.) | Rear (est.) |
|---|---|---|
| Driver only | 40 psi / 2.76 bar | 55 psi / 3.79 bar |
| Full occupancy | 41 psi / 2.83 bar | 57 psi / 3.93 bar |
| Motorway + luggage | 42 psi / 2.9 bar | 59 psi / 4.07 bar |
How to set the View Grand
- Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
- Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep View Grand numbers in your head.
- Add air in short bursts toward 40 psi (2.76 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.
Temperature drift
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 40 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this View Grand.
| Ambient | Gauge (front mid) | Bar | kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −5 °C (hard frost) | 37 psi | 2.55 bar | 255 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 0 °C | 38 psi | 2.62 bar | 262 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 8 °C (UK winter morning) | 39 psi | 2.69 bar | 269 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 20 °C (set cold here) | 40 psi | 2.76 bar | 276 kPa | Baseline |
| 30 °C | 42 psi | 2.9 bar | 290 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
| 38 °C (heatwave tarmac) | 43 psi | 2.96 bar | 296 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
Foton notes
No special Foton exception: the View Grand 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 Foton View Grand 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.
If the Foton sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this View Grand
What is that in bar and kPa for the View Grand?
Mid-points are about 2.76 bar (276 kPa) front and 3.79 bar (379 kPa) rear.
How often should I check a View Grand?
Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.
Front versus rear on the Foton View Grand?
This row is 35-45 F / 45-65 R. Even when they match, a laden rear can justify a higher number if the sticker prints one.
What PSI if I plus-size toward 285/70R17?
Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use LT265/70R17, 275/65R18 and 285/70R17 as a planning band.
What tyre pressure should a Foton View Grand use?
Catalogue reference is 35-45 psi front and 45-65 psi rear (2.4-3.1 / 3.1-4.5 bar), cold. Confirm on the door-pillar placard.
