Somebody told you 40 PSI. Maybe the car had it when you bought it. Maybe you've just used the same number for years. But MINI's own manuals show a 2018 Cooper S specifying 38 front and 35 rear — and the same year JCW specifying 42 front and 39 rear. Same nominal tyre size. Very different numbers.
In this video — why the one-number trap destroys tyres, and the simple routine that actually matches your MINI's specification.
📋 Where MINI's actual pressure numbers live — and why the tyre sidewall figure isn't one of them
🌡️ Why checking at a petrol station can give you the wrong reading — and what to do instead
❄️ How a cold snap can pull your pressure down by 3-6 PSI without a single leak
💡 What TPMS can tell you — and the one thing it genuinely cannot
👀 How to read tread wear as a clue rather than a diagnosis
40 isn't universally wrong. Assuming it belongs to every MINI is.
