Cold means the Galloper Super Exceed has stood at least three hours, or covered less than about a mile. Heat from a dual carriageway run is not the number you set. Size estimates on this page include 245/40R18, 215/55R16 and 225/40R18 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.

Temperature and a cold gauge

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

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 Super Exceed

Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Super Exceed 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.

Galloper Super Exceed placard versus sidewall

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

Estimated pressure by tyre size (245/40R18 and others)

If your Galloper Super Exceed no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 245/40R18 or 215/55R16 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.

Tyre size	Front PSI	Rear PSI	Front bar	Rear bar	Front kPa	Rear kPa	Note
245/40R18	36	36	2.48	2.48	248	248	Wide touring 18-inch
215/55R16	34	35	2.34	2.41	234	241	Slightly wider 16-inch
225/40R18	36	36	2.48	2.48	248	248	Low-profile 18-inch
225/50R17	35	35	2.41	2.41	241	241	Touring 17-inch
205/55R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Typical mid-compact OEM

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	38 psi / 2.62 bar

Galloper notes

No special Galloper exception: the Super Exceed 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 Galloper Super Exceed 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.

If the Galloper sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Super Exceed

How often should I check a Super Exceed?

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 Super Exceed?

Mid-points are about 2.31 bar (231 kPa) front and 2.31 bar (231 kPa) rear.

When does TPMS warn on a Galloper Super Exceed?

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

What PSI if I plus-size toward 225/40R18?

Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 245/40R18, 215/55R16 and 225/40R18 as a planning band.

Front versus rear on the Galloper Super Exceed?

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.
