    I have LT265/75R16's (as opposed to the stock 265/70/R16's). They are 10-ply tires.

    Do I still inflate these to the normal pressures on the sticker on the driver's door or do I inflate these higher?

    Logic tells me I have to add some pressure to adjust for the stiffer sidewall, otherwise the sidewall will take all the pressure and I will have uneven wear.

    Thanks!

    EDIT: Forgot to mention they are Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2's

    I did it again. Got tired of paying truck payments and gas and traded in for a 2015 Honda Accord Sport since I enjoyed my 2013 Sport so much.
    Higher. LT rated tires require a higher PSI. Otherwise they're considered under inflated, with all the bad problems that go with that
