Tires sagging?

Hey guys! Just picked up my new truck last weekend. I have the stock 265/70R16 Goodyear Wrangler Kevlar Tires on and I noticed all 4 tires are sagging a bit at the bottom. The door sticker says to have them at 30psi and when I measured them first thing in the morning, it says they're at all at 32 psi. It feels like I need to put more air in them cause they're sagging, but they're already over the recommended psi. What do you guys recommend?

 

Honestly they look perfect to me. You don’t want to overinflated and make the ride rough and have the center of your tires wear out quicker.

also not sure on the weather there in the morning but to have it at 32 in the morning will mean you probably are up in the 35-37 during the day..

 

Hi,

look ok to me to. They will have a bit of bulge on the ground.

 

Tires looks ok .... I have always done all my tire pressures at 35 PSI to 38 PSI on all my Toyota trucks ... that number works great on Tacoma's too ... better mileage and handling too ... with a slightly harder bump ratio.

36 PSI seems to be the best sweet spot for me ... local COSTCO does the nitrogen in them at 35 PSI

 

Looks normal.

 

All vehicle tires have bulge at the bottom....unless you have solid rubber tires.

 

Ooh okay, this is my first truck so I was kinda worried haha. Good to hear this looks normal though. Thanks everyone!

 

Congrats on your truck!

 

Thank you!

 

It's not truck related. All properly inflated radial tires have a similar shape to them, particularly in the ratings of softer stock tires.

Bias belted tires, E rated radials might not show what you are seeing quite so much due to stiffer sidewall construction. Most folks never notice it on cars because it takes effort to view that particular profile of the tire as the body is more in the way.

Good for you being observant.

Now Google 'chalk test' for treadwear. Do that and adjust your pressures to pass the test under your normal driving conditions.

 

Congratulation on the new truck.

All trucks, vehicles will have some sagging when tires are properly inflated. Usually the front will have slightly more sag due to weight of the engine.

 

Got it, I'll check that out. Thanks!
