Holden · Torana TT36 · Rear

Holden Torana TT36 rear tyres: 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar

Drivetrain: front-wheel drive
Body: passenger car
PSI F / R: 32-35 / 32-35
Bar F / R: 2.2-2.4 / 2.2-2.4

psi rear

2.31 bar · 231 kPa at the rear axle

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

The rear of a passenger car takes passengers, luggage and, on vans, payload. Catalogue rear pressure on the Holden Torana TT36 is 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar. TPMS typically warns near 25 psi (about 25% below target). That is already a soft tyre, not a fill target.

Holden Torana TT36 placard versus sidewall

The tyre-information placard on a Holden Torana TT36 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 (205/60R16 and others)

If your Holden Torana TT36 no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 205/60R16 or 215/50R17 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.

Tyre size	Front PSI	Rear PSI	Front bar	Rear bar	Front kPa	Rear kPa	Note
205/60R16	—	34	—	2.34	—	234	Taller 16-inch
215/50R17	—	35	—	2.41	—	241	Plus-size 17-inch
245/40R18	—	36	—	2.48	—	248	Wide touring 18-inch
225/40R18	—	36	—	2.48	—	248	Low-profile 18-inch
205/55R16	—	34	—	2.34	—	234	Typical mid-compact OEM
225/45R17	—	35	—	2.41	—	241	Sport 17-inch
215/55R16	—	35	—	2.41	—	241	Slightly wider 16-inch
185/65R15	—	33	—	2.28	—	228	Small / older car

Pressure against load

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	35 psi / 2.41 bar	36 psi / 2.48 bar
Motorway + luggage	36 psi / 2.48 bar	38 psi / 2.62 bar

A family passenger car 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 Torana TT36.

How to set the Torana TT36

Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Torana TT36 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.

Temperature drift

Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Torana TT36.

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

Holden notes

No special Holden exception: the Torana TT36 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 Holden Torana TT36 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 Holden sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Torana TT36

Front versus rear on the Holden Torana TT36?

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 Torana TT36?

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

What PSI if I plus-size toward 245/40R18?

Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 205/60R16, 215/50R17 and 245/40R18 as a planning band.

When does TPMS warn on a Holden Torana TT36?

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

Is the sidewall number correct on a Holden Torana TT36?

No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Torana TT36 placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.
