Kilopascals show up on some Asian stickers and ISO sheets. 231 kPa front and 231 kPa rear is the Infiniti M35 midpoint (100 kPa = 1 bar). Size estimates on this page include 255/40R17, 225/45R17 and 255/35R18 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.
kPa, bar and PSI
kPa-led conversions. 220 kPa is 2.2 bar and about 32 psi — handy if this M35 sticker uses SI units.
| kPa | Bar | PSI |

| 221 | 2.21 | 32 |

Estimated pressure by tyre size (255/40R17 and others)
Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a passenger car. This M35 sample opens with 255/40R17, then 225/45R17 and 255/35R18.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |

Infiniti M35 placard versus sidewall
Sidewall PSI is a carcass maximum. Recommended operating pressure for this M35 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 M35.
| 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 M35
- Park the Infiniti M35 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 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar front and 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar rear on this catalogue row.
- Recheck all four. A 2 psi miss on a rear-wheel drive M35 is enough to feel a pull.
- Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.
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 | 36 psi / 2.48 bar |
Infiniti notes
No special Infiniti exception: the M35 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 Infiniti M35 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 Infiniti sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this M35
Front versus rear on the Infiniti M35?
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 tyre pressure should a Infiniti M35 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.
What is that in bar and kPa for the M35?
Mid-points are about 2.31 bar (231 kPa) front and 2.31 bar (231 kPa) rear.
Should I bleed pressure after a motorway run?
No. Heat raises the gauge. Set cold only. Bleeding a hot tyre leaves it low the next morning.
What PSI if I plus-size toward 255/35R18?
Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 255/40R17, 225/45R17 and 255/35R18 as a planning band.
