tire pressure

what do most people keep their stock wheel/tire pressure at?

under pressure tires are the leading cause of lower MPG.

38-40 and 45-50.... wow what a great difference between just these two!

I just put new stock BFG A/t on and I am runing them at 40 PSI.

You will loose the cushyness at 50psi;) I will probably go back to running 40-45. I was just doing a mileage test going from 40psi to 50psi:D

and... your results of your mileage test at 50psi compared to 40-45?

OK, read the sticker on the inside door jam - drivers side. 37psi. Not 35, not 40 or higher, 37 period; for best mpg. Now, for the after market tires, we should know how/where to check for that info - correct?

The sticker on the door is more so for best ride, not best MPG. I've been running 44 in the fronts and 40 in the rears. The ride is great and I'm averaging about 14 MPG with mixed city / highway driving.

what size tires are we talking about? 35's (stock) 37's (most folks have) or 38s - 40's (a few elite have) or does it make a difference the size of tire v pressure run? Will a 38-40 ride the same with 40psi as 35? 37v35 don't seam to make much difference which pressure run with regards to ride smoothness.

37 psi
