Winter Tire Pressure.

Super Sketchy drive this morning. What tire pressure yall run in winter??

 

Same as I run in the summer, 30-32

 

Same year round. 32 on all 4.

 

As the fellow before stated same as all year round. tire pressure doesnt effect much once your tires maintain a flat footprint. going lower only really helps flex and comfort offroad. your tire pressures should be found for your vehicle and weight considering tire mfg. if your having issues in winter with "sketchy" situations i would suggest adding weight over the rear axle, using gears to help slow and finesse on the go-go pedal. Also having real winter tires and/or fresh tires for winter is a good place to start!

 

Where were you at OP? Or were you just out earlier than me? I run the same all year round.

 

Yeah I was at about 35 on all 4. Brought them all to 30. When I went from second to 3rd the rear end wiggled outa place for a sec so I'll try adding some weight. Guess it didn't help that it was in the low 20s.

 

Mine are running between 32 and 33.

 

32 Front
34 Rear


I haul stuff regularly.

We don’t get a lot of snow here.
It does get into the low 20’s or Teens a few times per year at night.

 

Weight over the rear is key. If you're not off road, lowering (or raising) is going to hurt you more. Follow the recommended PSI listed on the B pillar unless you have something other than the stock tire size.

 

Thank you all for the input. I appreciate it.

 

Did you change the air in the tires. Summer air isn't as dense as winter air.
Bleed the tires down to about 3 psi, then fill with the winter air. Do the same when summer arrives.



Seriously, same tire pressure year round. Look at the placard in the driver's door jamb. It will have the recommended tire pressure. One note, you will need to check the pressure as the air temperature changes. Falling temps will mean falling tire pressure. Rising temps = rising pressure. Adjust as needed.

 

I’d run the same. In deep snow, like when wheeling it helps to air down. Not recommend for the street..

I run 30 F 28 R on duratac 265/75/16 load C all year. After the chalk test that got them closer to even wear on the back
