What tyre pressure do you use off road

I run 42 as I tow all the time (everyday) and I have gone through more tyres over the years than I care to think about.... before people start going on about towing there caravans and get big miles out of there tyres I tow around town and make many turns in a day.

Towing heavy trailer in the suburbs just kills tyres...... I have tried all different ways and know how to get the best out of my tyres, I have even under very heavy load run 46 in the rear for single trips.

I would never run anything less than 38 for normal road use but find the sweet spot is 40.

35inch maxxis trepadores. 40 onroad 18 on easy tracks 15 on harder tracks an 12 on extreme

What extreme tracks have you done? Mind you our extreme is probably a little different to others.

lcmp just after the .2011 floods test track got a bit extreme at the end. thats where I caved in my doorsill. some of the hardest parts at ormeau.to name some.

go back to doctor phil you :P

33" Cooper stt's, 38 psi till I get bogged.
I keep em hard off road because I like a big of sideways action and it's too harsh to roost and slide on soft tyres;-)

FanTapstic!

Think I might try 40,seems popular. :-P

Coopers have a tyre recommendation pressure chart I do believe.
I run Kumho muddies 33"
Road - 38-39 psi 40+ I find the ride unpleasant
Dirt tracks and rough unsurfaced roads - 28-34psi
Rocks and nasty tyre shredding terrain - 20 - 24 psi and slowly, minimal wheel slip
Sand - Beachport to Robe I dropped to 18 as the sand was SOOOOOFFFFT.. in places along the beach.
Through Simpson last year I sat on 20psi most of the sand, Oodnadatta track sat on mid 30's.

32psi road, and 4-8psi offroad.

I have the Cooper SST 33's as well and am usually carrying a lot of weight.

Look at your tyre max psi... On the SSTs, I think they are only rated to 38psi so on-road, I use 32psi.

Firm off-road- around 20-25psi depending on corrugations etc.
Playing in the sand dunes/ soft sand- 10-12psi.

I find the SST's on 15inch rims really bag out well.

Don't inflate over recommended rating as they can let go in spectacular fashion.
