New to the forum. Tire Pressure Question.

Well I'm new here and I was wondering what the recommended tire pressure was for the 17'' Sequioa/Tundra rims. Heres a picture of them on my car. Thanks.

Recommended pressure goes by 1) What exact type/brand/size tire is it, 2)How heavy a load it has to carry, and 3) the hardness or softness of ride you want.
Best would be to contact the tire mfg and get their numbers for what pressure at what load(it'll be more pressure for a higher load,) for your specific tire.
Once I inquired at BFG via their website, and they phoned back and read me the table of load vs. pressure for the exact tire I had.

x2 on what Elton said, 34-36# would be your best bet.

i run 40 on my 16x8 and 285/75r16. they are really hard at that pressure, i may drop them down to 35 or so. the ride quality at 42 was too rough, so i let a few pounds out, and it was better, but still rides like a truck.

gas mileage is my primary concern as ive lost my dd.
