35-45 psi F · 45-65 psi R · 2.4-3.1 / 3.1-4.5 bar · 276/379 kPa
Loaded Troy rears often need the sticker’s second column, not a copy of the front 35-45 psi figure. Under-inflation cooks the shoulders of a Troy; over-inflation wears the centre rib and bangs every cat’s eye.
Gac Gonow Troy placard versus sidewall
If the Gac Gonow sticker is painted over, the handbook is next. This website is a map, not a replacement VIN label.
Estimated pressure by tyre size (245/70R16 and others)
If your Gac Gonow Troy no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 245/70R16 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 245/70R16 | — | 59 | — | 4.07 | — | 407 | Common 16-inch all-terrain |
| 275/65R18 | — | 61 | — | 4.21 | — | 421 | Plus-size 18-inch |
| LT265/70R17 | — | 69 | — | 4.76 | — | 476 | LT 17-inch |
| 255/65R17 | — | 60 | — | 4.14 | — | 414 | Highway 17-inch |
| LT245/75R16 | — | 67 | — | 4.62 | — | 462 | LT-metric, higher load |
| 265/70R17 | — | 60 | — | 4.14 | — | 414 | Typical 17-inch load tyre |

Pressure against load
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 | 40 psi / 2.76 bar | 56 psi / 3.86 bar |
| Motorway + luggage | 41 psi / 2.83 bar | 59 psi / 4.07 bar |
A family light commercial 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 Troy.
How to set the Troy
- Park the Gac Gonow Troy 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 35-45 psi / 2.4-3.1 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 Troy 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 40 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Troy.
| 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 |
Gac Gonow notes
No special Gac Gonow exception: the Troy 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 Gac Gonow Troy 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.
A cheap gauge and a monthly habit will do more for this Troy than nitrogen upsells.

Questions about this Troy
What tyre pressure should a Gac Gonow Troy 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.
How often should I check a Troy?
Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.
What is that in bar and kPa for the Troy?
Mid-points are about 2.76 bar (276 kPa) front and 3.79 bar (379 kPa) rear.
Is the sidewall number correct on a Gac Gonow Troy?
No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Troy placard is the operating target, near 35-45/45-65 psi.
Front versus rear on the Gac Gonow Troy?
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.
