Re: tire pressure check
look low and that bog down feeling when turning the rig. It has been my experience in the past that the sticker is for best ride/performance not really what the tire can handel for better mpg and performance???
or becase I'm psyco, you have aftermarket tires already don't you?

Re: tire pressure check
No, I have the Duelers. I run them at the rec. 35 PSI (cold).
But I'm more worried about even wear than getting an extra 1 mpg by bumping up the PSI.

No I still have the stock 33's. They do the job. But I plan to upgrade at some point.

X2
Mine are 35 all the time exept off road then it 18psi.
I inflated them (hot) at the beach to 35 but next morning they were 36.5.(aired down to 35 cold)
It drove very smooth on the 25 mile highway trip back from the beach,Im thinking of trying 36.5 on the trip down to georgia July 1st.
