The front axle of a StreetScooter Work steers and, on front-wheel drive cars, often pulls as well. Catalogue front pressure is 32-35 psi / 2.2-2.4 bar. Size estimates on this page include 215/50R17, 205/55R16 and 215/55R16 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.

StreetScooter Work placard versus sidewall

The tyre-information placard on a StreetScooter Work 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 (215/50R17 and others)

215/50R17 is the first planning size here. 215/55R16 is usually the plus-size or LT step. Keep load index at or above original equipment.

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.

Steering feel on the Work lives on this axle. Do not drop front pressure to “soften” a plus-size 215/55R16; you will roll the sidewall in a roundabout.

How to set the Work

  1. Park the StreetScooter Work for at least three hours (cold tyres).
  2. Use a calibrated gauge, not the only meter on a forecourt hose.
  3. 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.
  4. Recheck all four. A 2 psi miss on a front-wheel drive Work is enough to feel a pull.
  5. Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

StreetScooter notes

No special StreetScooter exception: the Work 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 StreetScooter Work 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 StreetScooter sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Work

What is that in bar and kPa for the Work?

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

What tyre pressure should a StreetScooter Work 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 Work?

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

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.

Is the sidewall number correct on a StreetScooter Work?

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