[Doug Mackintosh]

The 1969 VW Beetle owners manual gives these recommended tire pressures:

With 1-2 occupants:
Bias-ply tires: 16 F / 24 R
Radial tires:    18 F / 27 R

Fully loaded:
Bias-ply tires: 17 F / 26 R
Radial tires:    18 F / 27 R

For long high speed trips add 3 PSI front and rear. 

Historical James asked:

<PS: Just out of curiosity, does any one know the tire pressure
recommendations for VW Beetles and Porsche 356's?  Give the diversity of
this crowd, I'm sure one of you either knows off the top of your head or can
go out to your garage and check your todo pile.>
