Tire Pressure
It depends on the tire and what rating it is...
I have Michellin LTX AT's 235 x 75 x 15...
Their max load is 50 psi.... I try to keep radials close to their posted limit.... I typically run 45 and 45....
Do a search on tire pressure... I answered some body's post a while back and had a lengthy discussion about this...

I run 38 PSI front and 40 PSI rear. After lots of playing with the pressures those were the best settings as far as a compromise for fuel mileage and ride comfort for my truck.

I have a 94. Mostly city driving and my offroad driving is in the sand. Less pressure gives a nicer ride but acceleration was sluggish and mileage sucked. Of course my last car was a Mustang 5.0 with lots of mods so what others call firm may seem sloppy to me. Any more pressure in the tires and I really feel the bumps and the back hops on big dips. A better compromise was 36 front 38 rear but I filled my tires a while back and now the weather is much warmer so I adapted to the slightly higher pressures over time and like them even more.

Tire pressure cont.
Hey guys,
Remember a "floatation" tire by design normally utilizes less pressure then a regular road tire....
Hey RICK F, Yep I feel all the bumps in the road. For me and my "expensive" tires, I would rather replace the shocks (OEM Replacements)....
Save a little more money...........:confused:
