Treat this page as a map of the Renegade band. The legal setpoint is the printed door-pillar label for your VIN. Under-inflation cooks the shoulders of a Renegade; over-inflation wears the centre rib and bangs every cat’s eye. Keep side-to-side spread inside about 2 psi so the four-wheel drive hardware is not working on a radius mismatch.

How to set the Renegade

Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Renegade 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.
Log date, ambient temperature and the four readings.

Jeep Renegade placard versus sidewall

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

Estimated pressure by tyre size (255/50R20 and others)

If your Jeep Renegade no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 255/50R20 or 225/65R17 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.

Tyre size	Front PSI	Rear PSI	Front bar	Rear bar	Front kPa	Rear kPa	Note
255/50R20	37	37	2.55	2.55	255	255	20-inch plus-size
225/65R17	35	35	2.41	2.41	241	241	Very common 17-inch
215/70R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Compact crossover
225/60R18	35	35	2.41	2.41	241	241	Highway CUV
245/55R19	36	36	2.48	2.48	248	248	Low-profile 19-inch
245/60R18	36	37	2.48	2.55	248	255	Heavier CUV

Pressure against load

Load moves the rear of a SUV / crossover 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	37 psi / 2.55 bar

Temperature drift

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

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

Jeep notes

No special Jeep exception: the Renegade 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 Jeep Renegade 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 Jeep sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Renegade

Front versus rear on the Jeep Renegade?

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.

Is the sidewall number correct on a Jeep Renegade?

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

What tyre pressure should a Jeep Renegade 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 Renegade?

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.
