    Found a crack/split in the sidewall of one of my set of Cooper ST 255's...aged out, tread was still adequate low milage discontinued tire. gone. placed a set of five Cooper ST/Maxx 235's. look promising, almost as lightweight in the 235/85/16 size as was the D rate ST 255/85/16.

    I’m also looking for a recommendation on my Toyos - I have them at 40 and it just seems a little low

    An earlier post said he runs 46, so I'll try around that range.

    Just the basics
    I just got my truck smogged and they aired me down from 45 to 35. I asked why and they said they went from the door sticker. I was a bit upset they wouldn't look at the actual tire for specs. They aired them back to where I had them.

    For anyone with tire pressure questions- the chalk test is the answer. You need to test and check to see what psi fron/rear with how your vehicle is typically loaded results in a square and uniform contact patch.

    45 is working pretty good for me. I did get stuck on a hill in some muddy grass though. Had to reverse till I was sideways on the hill and even then I couldn’t do it until I was in 4wd. But I guess they were cutting through to reach firmer ground. Still love them 500 miles and two short road trips later.

    I tried 45psi but could visibly see the center have a roundness to it. I'm at 40 and want to try out 38 psi. These are k02
