32-35 psi F · 32-35 psi R · 2.2-2.4 / 2.2-2.4 bar · 231/231 kPa

If your gauge only speaks kPa, aim near 231 / 231 for this Gladiator, then fine-tune to the placard. A 10 °C overnight drop takes roughly 1 psi (0.07 bar) off a closed Giotti Victoria tyre. Commercial and load-biased bodies like this pickup / double-cab often need a higher rear; LT or C-type sizes such as 265/70R17 are not filled like a Fiesta.

kPa, bar and PSI

kPa-led conversions. 220 kPa is 2.2 bar and about 32 psi — handy if this Gladiator sticker uses SI units.

Estimated pressure by tyre size (255/65R17 and others)

Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a pickup / double-cab. This Gladiator sample opens with 255/65R17, then 285/70R17 and 265/70R17.

Giotti Victoria Gladiator placard versus sidewall

Sidewall PSI is a carcass maximum. Recommended operating pressure for this Gladiator is the pillar sticker, near 34/34 psi.

Temperature drift

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

How to set the Gladiator

  1. Park the Giotti Victoria Gladiator for at least three hours (cold tyres).
  2. Use a calibrated gauge, not the only meter on a forecourt hose.
  3. Set the placard for that axle — about 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar front and 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar rear on this catalogue row.
  4. Recheck all four. A 2 psi miss on a rear-wheel drive Gladiator is enough to feel a pull.
  5. Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

Load notes

Load moves the rear of a pickup / double-cab first. If the factory placard already has a “laden” column, use that instead of these sketches.

Giotti Victoria notes

No special Giotti Victoria exception: the Gladiator 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 Giotti Victoria Gladiator 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 Giotti Victoria sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Gladiator

What is that in bar and kPa for the Gladiator?

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

When does TPMS warn on a Giotti Victoria Gladiator?

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

Front versus rear on the Giotti Victoria Gladiator?

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 PSI if I plus-size toward 265/70R17?

Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 255/65R17, 285/70R17 and 265/70R17 as a planning band.

What tyre pressure should a Giotti Victoria Gladiator 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.
