   A mate of mine has just bought a 206 gti and it came with 17s when i filled my tyres he wanted to do his but didn't know the correct pressures.
   Inside his door it has the sticker saying correct pressures but this is for 15s.
   He's running 17s with some sort of low profile tyre. Nankangs i believe (shite tyres lol) what pressure should he have them at (front and rear)
