Check the rear size again. If it is in fact a 195/70 it is the wrong size, not extra load and probably is limited to 35 or 41 PSI. Anyway it should go.

The drivers door sticker sez with 185 R 14C the pressure should be 43 front and 53 rear. With 205 70 R14 pressure should be 30 front and 40 rear Ok, For the winter I'm running 185 R 14 C (Hakka CS) in the front at 43 psi BUT on the rear I've got 195 70 R14 (Hakka C2) So my dumb question is: do I split the difference between the 205 pressure and the 185 pressure and run about 46 psi on the rear 195's or are there other factors to consider?
