tyre pressures on road
hi team
just purchased some bridgestones & feel like running at to low a pressure
dealer had them at 35 psi but i still feel gripping up to much (not standing up)
had some aPerellies at 36 psi no problems.
i have afreind with a Cruiser that runs ate 50 psi
any advise would be great as these tyres are costly & can feel money being left on the road
cheers

What brand mate as different manufacturers have different pressures.

I think most 4x4 tyres are supposed to be run at 40-45 psi for normal tarmac driving. I could be wrong and please tell me if I am, but I have run under this assumption for over 20 years with no ill effects. At the moment I run my 65 series ProComps at about 38-40 for a bit of comfort and have not noticed any abnormal wear.

Some can take 60 psi with no heat probs or any distorion probs. Check the rating on sidewall.
