Tire Pressure

Wondering what everyone is running in their tires. The door sticker says 29psi, which seems really low. I'm running 32psi cold for now, which still feels low, coming from cars with low profile high performance tires which I ran 40psi.

 

Chalk test.

I'm running 41 psi hot

 

I've ran 35/32 on all the tires and sizes I've ran on my truck. No wear issues and ride great

 

36 cold and 39 hot when they get rolling

 

34.

 

32 here....18" rims with Michelin LTX M/S2

 

32 on my 16".

 

I went to 30 on the stock Toyo tires. Road feel greatly improved but it does feel really low. On short trips it gets to 31 and longer 32. Before it was 32 cold and would get to 36 which I felt was too high and road feel was rougher.

 

You're never going to feel a 6 psi difference on a pickup truck. It's all in your head

 

Can someone explain this chalk test ? I've seen it mentioned here before

Note, the Chalk Test is not to be confused with the Pencil Test...

 

That was awesome. I totally deserved that. Not even mad. Thank you.

 

I'm glad you took it in the "kidding" spirit I'd intended.

Second link was real of course, so as to actually contribute information.

 

38 cold

 

as long as you follow up with a valuable response/link i feel most people will comprehend the initial "Kidding" part. btw i'm so going to start doing this! I clicked the link wondering what it was and started LMAO .

 

35psi all around

 

Thank you for googling that.

 

I ran up to 65psi cold as recommended on my tires. It rode too rough, due to the lugs so I am back down to 30psi cold. It gets up to about 36psi hot

 

34 psi cold on daily driving. 45 psi when towing something heavy like a camper trailer

 

you'll feel 6psi difference in traction once you air down haha.
16psi vs 22psi can be noticeable depending on trail conditions.

But on road at 32/38 psi ya, agreed won't feel a thing
