this is I found on the net... *"Always go by the Tire if the tire has been changed from the original set. It is best to keep the tire at about 10% the maximum fill." * on my vanagon with General Grabber the max on sidewall is 50psi - minus 10% will give 45psi, I put 46psi which is about right. (for the Rear) as for the Front... for weight distribution and comfort I subtract 20% which came about 40psi, I put 42psi. now if you decide to put as recommended Max psi on the sidewall... Fine, Bravo and be Happy... peace... |
