Tire PSI Over 100 MPH

[MurderPony]

The owners manual says the tire pressure may need to be increased when driving at speeds over 100 MPH and it says to refer to the sticker on the B Pillar.

I checked my sticker (Base GT PP) and the only thing it says is 32 PSI Cold for all 4 Tires with no mention of increased pressures for high speed.

Anybody have this sticker?

My car has a separate sticker from the normal tire pressure panel that states what PSI to add for 100+, just can't recall what and the car is at home in the stable.

If you wouldn't mind adding a photo of it to this thread I would appreciate it. Does yours have the Performance Pack?

Maybe EU-spec cars will have it? You are allowed to go over 100MPH in some parts of Germany.

... which doesn't answer the OP's question. :tsk:
OP is not asking why or if you would need to increase the tire pressure for >100MPH speed, he wants to know by how much, for the specific setup of this car. Hence he's looking for the sticker with that info, which he obviously cannot find on his car.

Not if someone uses it to Google the wrong thing for you. Then it is simply #fail.

Easy to see if the lmgtfy dude found the right stuff for you or not. If not, then the dude he Googled for can take over from there.

Looks like it says if there is no sticker to not worry about it

I think this is the answer, just checked mine and I only have a warning label about summer tires in low temperatures or icy conditions.

Yep, no "legal" autobahns in the USA.

Did you not click the link? Because the first link has a table with how much you should increase your tire pressure based on speed, separated by speed rating none the less.
