Mitsubishi L200 front tyres: 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar

Drivetrain: rear-wheel drive
Body: pickup / double-cab
PSI F / R: 32-35 / 32-35

psi front

2.31 bar · 231 kPa at the steering axle

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

A 3 psi miss on one front corner of this L200 shows up as a wander before the TPMS lamp bothers you. Target 34 psi (2.31 bar) cold. A 10 °C overnight drop takes roughly 1 psi (0.07 bar) off a closed Mitsubishi tyre. Commercial and load-biased bodies like this pickup / double-cab often need a higher rear; LT or C-type sizes such as 235/75R15 are not filled like a Fiesta.

Mitsubishi L200 placard versus sidewall

The tyre-information placard on a Mitsubishi L200 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 (255/65R17 and others)

Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a pickup / double-cab. This L200 sample opens with 255/65R17, then LT265/70R17 and 235/75R15.

Tyre size	Front PSI	Rear PSI	Front bar	Rear bar	Front kPa	Rear kPa	Note
255/65R17	37	—	2.55	—	255	—	Highway 17-inch
LT265/70R17	42	—	2.9	—	290	—	LT 17-inch
235/75R15	35	—	2.41	—	241	—	Older compact truck
LT245/75R16	42	—	2.9	—	290	—	LT-metric, higher load
245/70R16	36	—	2.48	—	248	—	Common 16-inch all-terrain
265/70R17	37	—	2.55	—	255	—	Typical 17-inch load tyre
275/65R18	37	—	2.55	—	255	—	Plus-size 18-inch
285/70R17	38	—	2.62	—	262	—	Wide all-terrain

Pressure against load

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.

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
Payload / towing	35 psi / 2.41 bar	38 psi / 2.62 bar

Steering feel on the L200 lives on this axle. Do not drop front pressure to “soften” a plus-size 235/75R15; you will roll the sidewall in a roundabout.

How to set the L200

Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep L200 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 L200.

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

Mitsubishi notes

No special Mitsubishi exception: the L200 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 Mitsubishi L200 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 Mitsubishi sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this L200

Is the sidewall number correct on a Mitsubishi L200?

No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The L200 placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.

Front versus rear on the Mitsubishi L200?

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 235/75R15?

Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 255/65R17, LT265/70R17 and 235/75R15 as a planning band.

How often should I check a L200?

Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.

When does TPMS warn on a Mitsubishi L200?

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