Personally, I think our trucks are too heavy to go any less than 20PSI.

I agree totally, but you can go down to 15 psi if need be, you just have to real slow and careful, or use bead locks. I think 18 is a little low and for the most part think 20-25 works fine. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I ran everything at 18 this time and didn't really notice any difference so will go back to 25. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Exactly what I'm going to do next time. I never had even the slightest traction issue, but I wouldn't mind another 1/2-1 inches of clearance or whatever it would be going from 18 to 25 psi.

On Saturday I found out that I ran the entire week at 30 psi.

Adam was with me when I was filling up my tires. My air hose guage said I was starting the refill from 30 psi. I checked them again with my deflator's gauge and it said 20. I used Adam's gauge to figure out which one was right. Turns out, my hose gauge was right. So that P.O.S. deflator guage screwed up my deflation and I didn't go down as much as I should have. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>STAUNS..... DO NOW!!!!!
