You could even go as low as 30psi all round. Do you carry much in the back?

[threedogs]

40psi for hwy and not less than 30 psi around town
Maybe 38rear 35 front

38-40psi.... 30 is ridiculous? ?

34-36 for Mickey T no worries
My troll I run at that and same with wife's Prado both on MTZ
I rotate my tyres every 5k bit harder to do with claws as their directional

@ growler a 4 tyre rotate you should be fine as its only front to back and back to front on both sides
30 is low but if stuck out woop woop driving slowly you could get to a servo without overheating

[growler2058]

I rotate with 5 on both cars
And I don't mean the type of five Winnie rotates on ;)

TD is on the money for me, I have MTZ for off road and AT3 for road and that's the pressures that's in them both.
A tip is to set the pressure on 1 tyre that you think is right, put a bit of steel or wood front and rear of its footprint. Measure the distance between them then set the other tyres to that footprint length. Adjust to suit your loads of course.
Works a treat and gives you a good benchmark for empty & full.
