Hi Guys

Just asking anyone running a ute, pretty loaded that has split rims and goes on 40% Bitumen 40% good gravel rd and 20% s@@t gravel rd what pressures you run from and rear.

At the moment have 40 f 50 r, but saw a Telstra sticker in glove box saying 60psi. I think at 60 I wouldn't have any fillings left.

I don't care if I shorten the life of the tyre by 10% if that's all I gain by the higher pressure.

Cheers.

Marty.

Don't be so cruel Doggy...... you forget his flex shots when he mounted the curb!!!!!!!!


Also Cuppa would probably be of help with this question, what with his recent quest.

Ive got a new guttless ranger thats over loaded with 1.2 ton of cement bags daily and I run about 45 front 50 back and I doubt if id drop preasure for dirt unless it was pretty rocky stuff, id just slow down. if your load changes frequently look at some air bags ,makes a huge difference to the handling ive got incab controls on mine its awsome!,
