Treat this page as a map of the Ferox Adventure band. The legal setpoint is the printed door-pillar label for your VIN. A 10 °C overnight drop takes roughly 1 psi (0.07 bar) off a closed Militem tyre.

How to set the Ferox Adventure

Park the Militem Ferox Adventure 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 front-wheel drive Ferox Adventure is enough to feel a pull.
Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

Militem Ferox Adventure placard versus sidewall

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

Estimated pressure by tyre size (185/65R15 and others)

185/65R15 is the first planning size here. 195/65R15 is usually the plus-size or LT step. Keep load index at or above original equipment.

Tyre size	Front PSI	Rear PSI	Front bar	Rear bar	Front kPa	Rear kPa	Note
185/65R15	33	33	2.28	2.28	228	228	Small / older car
205/55R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Typical mid-compact OEM
195/65R15	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Very common compact
215/50R17	35	35	2.41	2.41	241	241	Plus-size 17-inch

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	34 psi / 2.34 bar	35 psi / 2.41 bar
Motorway + luggage	35 psi / 2.41 bar	36 psi / 2.48 bar

Temperature drift

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

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

Militem notes

No special Militem exception: the Ferox Adventure 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 Militem Ferox Adventure 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 Militem sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Ferox Adventure

What is that in bar and kPa for the Ferox Adventure?

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

Front versus rear on the Militem Ferox Adventure?

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.

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 tyre pressure should a Militem Ferox Adventure 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.

Is the sidewall number correct on a Militem Ferox Adventure?

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