Efficient, quick, and an overall fun-to-drive vehicle, the Kia Forte is one of America’s fastest-rising sedans, both in terms of popularity and quality. It’s able to give you maximum return on investment every time you step behind the wheel, but it can only achieve this when its tires are filled up in the correct fashion. Today, our Boucher Kia sales team will show you the recommended tire pressure for the 2019 Kia Forte, so that you can see what level you should be keeping them at during all times!  

Optimal tire pressure of 2019 Kia Forte wheel sizes 

In order to keep your Forte model’s handling, cornering, and braking as effective as can be, you should aim to keep your tires at a Pound per Square Inch (psi) rating of 32-34 psi for 16-inch wheels. If you have 17-inch wheels outfitted on your vehicle, any rating between 34 and 36 psi should do the trick. Be sure, however, not to over or under-inflate your tires; this could lead to diminished fuel efficiency and a ride that isn’t as comfortable as it could be.

Every Forte model is different, however, depending on its trim configuration; it’s because of this that you should only treat this recommendation as an estimation. For a more detailed explanation of your model’s optimal pressure level, you should consult your owner’s manual, or the placard located on your driver’s side door.
