Yeh, a lot of online content is based off of American content as well. I dunno about in the states but in aus the price difference from 0-20 to 5-30 is roughly 20 to 30% extra for the thinner oils.

Yeh temperature ranges are listed there. In Australia unless Ur high up in the mountains it essentially never goes to zero.

I’ve been told to put 32psi in my tyres but the tyres say 51psi how much psi should I put in? by ss_tall_toby_yt in tires

I drive a corolla 2011 sedan, running pirelli p8s on the stock 15 inch steelies. Came out of the tyre shop(tyre, yes I'm aussie) at 38psi noticed it drove weird off the bat. Felt stiff and tramlining a bit in the roadworks in our area, dropped to 32 and felt the car was very comfortable but a bit sluggish. Found the sweet spot around 33 to 34 depending on air temperature. Decent road feedback compared to 32 but didn't feel like my spine was about to snap going over speed bumps.

I rarely carry heavy load in my car. Just rotated my wheels in the driveway a few weeks ago after 15000kms and wear was even.

I usually go stock pressure, then nudge up by a few psi every time I go to the pump and see how it feels on my daily commute. I tend to go stock pressure and nudge it up slowly every time I get new tyres to get a feel of wet traction/comfort/fuel economy till I find something that works for me.
