kPa
231 / 231
2.31 / 2.31 bar · 32-35 / 32-35 psi
32-35 psi F · 32-35 psi R · 2.2-2.4 / 2.2-2.4 bar · 231/231 kPa
If your gauge only speaks kPa, aim near 231 / 231 for this Rogue, then fine-tune to the placard. Under-inflation cooks the shoulders of a Rogue; over-inflation wears the centre rib and bangs every cat’s eye.
kPa, bar and PSI
kPa-led conversions. 220 kPa is 2.2 bar and about 32 psi — handy if this Rogue sticker uses SI units.
| kPa | Bar | PSI |

| 207 | 2.07 | 30 |
| 221 | 2.21 | 32 |
| 228 | 2.28 | 33 |

Estimated pressure by tyre size (255/50R20 and others)
255/50R20 is the first planning size here. 235/65R17 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 255/50R20 | 37 | 37 | 2.55 | 2.55 | 255 | 255 | 20-inch plus-size |
| 245/60R18 | 36 | 37 | 2.48 | 2.55 | 248 | 255 | Heavier CUV |
| 235/65R17 | 35 | 36 | 2.41 | 2.48 | 241 | 248 | Mid-size SUV |
| 235/60R18 | 36 | 36 | 2.48 | 2.48 | 248 | 248 | Plus-size 18-inch |
| 225/60R18 | 35 | 35 | 2.41 | 2.41 | 241 | 241 | Highway CUV |
| 225/65R17 | 35 | 35 | 2.41 | 2.41 | 241 | 241 | Very common 17-inch |
| 245/55R19 | 36 | 36 | 2.48 | 2.48 | 248 | 248 | Low-profile 19-inch |
| 215/70R16 | 34 | 34 | 2.34 | 2.34 | 234 | 234 | Compact crossover |
Nissan Rogue placard versus sidewall
If the Nissan sticker is painted over, the handbook is next. This website is a map, not a replacement VIN label.
Temperature drift
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Rogue.
| 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 Rogue
- Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
- Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Rogue 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.
Load notes
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 | 36 psi / 2.48 bar |
Nissan notes
A Qashqai and a Navara do not share a number. Vans and taxis may sit higher than a family hatch.
Spare and inflator kit
A matching full-size spare on the Nissan Rogue 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 Nissan sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Rogue
What is that in bar and kPa for the Rogue?
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.
How often should I check a Rogue?
Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.
What PSI if I plus-size toward 235/65R17?
Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 255/50R20, 245/60R18 and 235/65R17 as a planning band.
What tyre pressure should a Nissan Rogue 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.
