European and UK handbooks usually quote bar. The Wey Coffee 01 catalogue is 2.2-2.4 bar front and 2.2-2.4 bar rear (midpoint 2.31 / 2.31). Size estimates on this page include 245/40R18, 225/40R18 and 195/65R15 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker.

Estimated pressure by tyre size (245/40R18 and others)

Planning cold pressures for sizes often seen on a passenger car. This Coffee 01 sample opens with 245/40R18, then 225/40R18 and 195/65R15.

Tyre size	Front PSI	Rear PSI	Front bar	Rear bar	Front kPa	Rear kPa	Note
245/40R18	36	36	2.48	2.48	248	248	Wide touring 18-inch
225/40R18	36	36	2.48	2.48	248	248	Low-profile 18-inch
195/65R15	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Very common compact
205/60R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Taller 16-inch
185/65R15	33	33	2.28	2.28	228	228	Small / older car
215/55R16	34	35	2.34	2.41	234	241	Slightly wider 16-inch
205/55R16	34	34	2.34	2.34	234	234	Typical mid-compact OEM

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

How to set the Coffee 01

Park the Wey Coffee 01 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 Coffee 01 is enough to feel a pull.
Refit valve caps and reset TPMS if the handbook asks for a relearn.

Temperature drift

Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Coffee 01.

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

Wey notes

No special Wey exception: the Coffee 01 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 Wey Coffee 01 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 Wey sticker and this page disagree, the sticker wins.

Questions about this Coffee 01

What is that in bar and kPa for the Coffee 01?

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

What tyre pressure should a Wey Coffee 01 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.

What PSI if I plus-size toward 195/65R15?

Keep load index at or above OEM. Low-profile sizes usually stay at or slightly above the placard. Use 245/40R18, 225/40R18 and 195/65R15 as a planning band.

Is the sidewall number correct on a Wey Coffee 01?

No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Coffee 01 placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.

Front versus rear on the Wey Coffee 01?

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.
