Your Toyota Camry Tire Pressure Guide

 It’s time! Your Toyota Camry tire pressure is getting low. We’re here for you, our Charlotte Toyota service experts are giving you the low down on the latest tech, and checking your Toyota Camry tire pressure! Don’t be left on the side of the road let’s get into it! 



Toyota Tech and Your Tires - Toyota Camry Style

Toyota tech is stepping it up each year, and there are two different ways to check the tire pressure on your car. Here they are:


  • Tire Pressure Gauge: Ol’ reliable, depending on when you purchased your Toyota of N Charlotte Camry, it should have this gauge. You can also measure your PSI with this gauge giving you the perfect pressure for your tires for your Toyota Camry. You just need to remove the stem cap and place the gauge right on the valve stem. Perfect! Now you have the PSI reading. 

  • TPMS or Tire Pressure Monitoring System:  So, in the newer N Charlotte Toyota Camry there is TPMS. This system measures your Toyota Camry tire pressure to let you know when your tire pressure is getting low. A little warning display will appear on your dash, now you can drive with no surprises! Your tires with Toyota Camry tech will keep you not only in style but also safer. 


So now you know what tech is available for your Toyota Camry tire pressure needs but let’s get into how much air is needed for your N Charlotte Toyota. 



What is the Recommended Toyota Camry Tire Pressure?

The Toyota Camry tire pressure depends on the size of your tires. Our N Charlotte techs recommended 32 to 35 PSI for each tire. If you’re just not sure what size your tires are there’s typically a sticker just on the inside of your driver’s door that lists the tire pressure for your ride. If you have an older Toyota you may also find it in your owner's manual, if all else fails you can consult with one of our expert techs! 

Why is the Right Tire Pressure Important?

If you decide to fill your tire on your own it’s important to know the right amount of PSI. It’s not only for your safety but for the longevity of your Toyota tires. Too much pressure or not enough can result in:


  • Your tread wearing faster and your brake function is reduced!

  • More likely to get a flat or blown-out tire, which could leave you stranded at any moment - or worse in a fender bender. 

  • Worst of all your tires could overheat, in this hot weather, no one wants that!


Make sure you’re checking your Toyota Camry tire pressure regularly, just to be sure you won’t have any accidents or incidents!
