Just want to make sure its noted that this recommendation is intended for the stock wheel/tire setup, so if you arent running stock wheels and tires then it should not be what you follow.
If you have different size wheels/tires and/or a different brand of tire you should definitely do some research on what is recommended.
I agree though, it is definitely wrong to run the max rated psi stamped on the tire... thats way high.

I've adjusted it to 45PSI

Yeah but thats for stock 17's with mad sidewall... I have 19's with barely any... If I ran what the car said, I'd bend my rims every day lol

Yeah... I have 45PSI in there... I'll keep an eye on the tread wears.



Sorry everyone but I didnt get photos of the repair while the tire was off

I purchased a craftsman digital tire gauge yesterday though... I'll never let my tires get so low again.

33-37 unloaded, and 37-44 loaded" I think 40 would be more ideal
