AnswerFirst of all, you should
never change the size of a tyre profile without checking with the bike maker first that it is safe to do so. The narrower profile may slip from the rim and a larger profile can cause a flatter profile making cornering unstable.
The tyre pressures should be the same but you
MUST check with the bike manufacturer that it is safe to change to the size you have chosen.
