Bright (Leslie) Posted on Friday, March 01, 2002 - 12:18 am:    Depends on size. E load range, ie. 245/75R16 and 235/85R16 sizes, can go up to 80 psi. I'm running 40 psi in the front, 50 psi in the back, FWIW.... You can run higher, lower, whatever you like. Just keep about a 10 psi difference between the front and back (with the back being higher)... they handle better that way. -L   Dave Thomas (Geekforhire) Posted on Friday, March 01, 2002 - 12:38 am:    Wow. That much? I just got a set of the E 245/75R16's and noticed that they did not feel good on the street 'til almost 40psi. I thought I might be running them a bit high but I guess not. Sweet tires BTW. Cant beat the price either.   Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Posted on Friday, March 01, 2002 - 08:30 am:    I agree.... Sweet tires.... I've got ~20K on mine now, and there's almost no treadwear yet... I could go on, but I have before, no need to try to sell you on them, lol... -L   Bill Bettridge (Billb) Posted on Friday, March 01, 2002 - 08:52 am:    I run 40 psi front and rear also on my RT's Bill   Dave Posted on Friday, March 01, 2002 - 01:32 pm:    I run 40 psi on front and rear, sometimes down to 36 in front. Really depends on the weather. That's on 265/75 RT's
