What is the recommended tire pressure for a 2014 Nissan Altima?

The 2014 Nissan Altima uses 33 PSI cold on the front axle and 33 PSI cold on the rear axle. These are the OEM specifications. Always measure tire pressure when the tires are cold — before driving or after sitting for at least 3 hours.

What tire size does the 2014 Nissan Altima use?

The standard (base trim) tire size for the 2014 Nissan Altima is 215/60R16. Higher trim levels and optional packages may use a different size — check the sticker inside your driver's door for the exact specification for your vehicle.

How do I convert the 2014 Nissan Altima tire pressure to bar?

33 PSI = 2.3 bar (front) and 33 PSI = 2.3 bar (rear). In kPa: 228 kPa front and 228 kPa rear. Multiply PSI × 0.0689 to convert to bar.

Why are the front and rear tire pressures the same on the 2014 Nissan Altima?

The 2014 Nissan Altima uses equal pressure front and rear (33 PSI). The vehicle's weight distribution and symmetric tire sizing mean both axles carry similar loads per tire.

What happens if the 2014 Nissan Altima tires are underinflated?

Running 5+ PSI low on the Nissan Altima causes uneven shoulder wear, increased rolling resistance (worse fuel economy), higher tire operating temperature, and reduced wet braking performance. In extreme cases, chronic underinflation can cause sidewall failure. Check pressure monthly and always after a large temperature swing.

What do the numbers in 215/60R16 mean on the 2014 Nissan Altima?

On the 2014 Nissan Altima, 215/60R16 breaks down as: 215 = section width in millimetres (8.46"), 60 = aspect ratio (the sidewall is 60% of the width, so 129 mm / 5.08" tall), R = radial construction, and 16 = the wheel diameter in inches.

What is the overall diameter of the 2014 Nissan Altima tires?

The 215/60R16 tire on the 2014 Nissan Altima has an overall diameter of about 26.16" (664 mm) and a rolling circumference of roughly 82.18", giving about 771 revolutions per mile. Fitting a tire with a different diameter will throw off your speedometer and odometer.
