 Honestly, I don't think anybody knows the correct answer to this unending question.  They try stuff, we try stuff, and then we see what happens.  For instance, GoWesty stated (via a telephone call)  that 44 PSI all around is "recommended" for their 205/60/R16 tire and wheel package.  I have used this parameter for 14 years on a 2 WD Tintop Vanagon.  With excellent performance and wear.  And I keep tire pressure updated at 4 month intervals.  But yeah....it's an elusive question.  Sooooo many variables.

 hi all,

I always put lower pressure on the Front tires than the Rear either 2WD or
Syncro... but recently someone with a SYncro told me to put same pressure
for Front and Rear on a Syncro for the reason it's a 4x4.

Is this statement correct?

thanks
