    Road tyre pressure?

    Picked up a y61 GU9 from the dealership this week. They had 52psi all round. Seems a bit high. Thoughts?

    That's interesting. I find that the middle of the treads on my HT 31x10.5 15 wranglers chew out at anything above 28-30psi.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    My Mt atzs appear to be wearing evenly so far at the pressures I run them at

    40 psi for hwy, for max fuel economy
    35-38 psi around town

    Check the wheel nuts every other month as they do come loose

    What is the recommended pressure as stated on the tyre, it's no use just throwing figures if they are manufacturer specs
