How to Check Tire Pressure on Your Honda Civic Type R
Check cold (parked 3+ hours) with a gauge. Civics from 2014 on (including all 10th- and 11th-gen cars) use indirect TPMS, which estimates pressure from wheel speed — that is why your Civic does not show individual PSI numbers, and why you must run TPMS Calibration from the menu after adjusting pressures. Models from 2010-2013 have direct sensors. Recommended cold pressure is 33 PSI on 2016+ trims and 32 PSI on the earlier years covered here; Si and Type R run higher (see the trim table).

What PSI should my spare tire be on a 2023 Honda Civic Type R?
The compact spare tire (donut) for the 2023 Honda Civic Type R should be inflated to 60 PSI. Check your spare every few months — it can lose air while sitting unused in the trunk. Compact spares are for temporary use only (max 50 mph, up to 50 miles).
Does tire pressure change with temperature?
Yes. For every 10°F drop in outside temperature, your tire pressure drops about 1 PSI. This is why TPMS warning lights often come on during the first cold snap of autumn. The opposite is also true — tire pressure increases about 1 PSI per 10°F temperature rise. Always inflate to the recommended 35/33 PSI when tires are cold.
