As to the tire pressure, go by what's on the tire. You can go above it some, say another 5 lbs. But I don't own an H1, so I'm sure someone else with one can anwer you with more specifics.
Welcome aboard.

I would say go by what's on the door. Door or somewhere in the door sill. Maybe check your owner's manual as well. My only concern is tire listed pressure would seem not to be based on vehicle weight or dynamics, since the same tire could be used on a multitude of vehicles. Or list Max PSI.

I didn't say DOOR? Odd.

Re: Little help please...New H1 owner here
If you're running MTRs you'll probably like the ride of 35-40psi.

Re: Little help please...New H1 owner here
The tires in the H1 rise up about 5 PSI once they are warm, hence the 30 PSI in the front and 35 in the rear when they are cold. But, you are right 35-40 PSI is ideal, both for tire wear and comfort. Unless he has changed the tires on his truck he still has your personal favorite tires. Goodyear GSA's. (which wear best at 35 PSI in the front and 40 in the rear when warm)

Re: Little help please...New H1 owner here
Thanks for the input.
I'm running run flat GSA's with CTIS. I had been using the 35/40 setup (at cold) but when the tires warmed up at highway speeds I noticed a "drumming" sound from the rear. Lowering the pressure to about 39 stopped it.
As far as the lights...they are just out of alignment. Nothing is rusted anywhere.
And I did bite the bullet and ordered a bunch of goodies from Teakatoys.com last night.
Truck (and I) are in Southern NJ.
Again, thanks for the input. Much appreciated.
