Cold means the Mitsubishi PICK UP has stood at least three hours, or covered less than about a mile. Heat from a dual carriageway run is not the number you set. Size estimates on this page include 205/55R16, 215/50R17 and 215/55R16 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.

Temperature and a cold gauge

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

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 PICK UP

Park the Mitsubishi PICK UP 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 PICK UP is enough to feel a pull.
Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

Mitsubishi PICK UP placard versus sidewall

The tyre-information placard on a Mitsubishi PICK UP 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 (205/55R16 and others)

If your Mitsubishi PICK UP no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 205/55R16 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
205/55R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Typical mid-compact OEM
215/50R17	35	35	2.41	2.41	241	241	Plus-size 17-inch
215/55R16	34	35	2.34	2.41	234	241	Slightly wider 16-inch
205/60R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Taller 16-inch
195/65R15	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Very common compact
185/65R15	33	33	2.28	2.28	228	228	Small / older car
245/40R18	36	36	2.48	2.48	248	248	Wide touring 18-inch
225/45R17	35	35	2.41	2.41	241	241	Sport 17-inch

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

Mitsubishi notes

No special Mitsubishi exception: the PICK UP 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 PICK UP 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.

Keep the Mitsubishi PICK UP on the printed band; use 205/55R16 and 215/55R16 only as a map for non-OEM wheels.

Questions about this PICK UP

What is that in bar and kPa for the PICK UP?

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

What tyre pressure should a Mitsubishi PICK UP 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.

How often should I check a PICK UP?

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

Front versus rear on the Mitsubishi PICK UP?

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 Mitsubishi PICK UP?

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