So what PSI is everyone running? I know everyone has different sizes of tires.....etc. But what kind of tire, what psi and what size are you running? I have 265/75R16's. Chaparral MT's 10ply. On the highway and around town I run 30psi. If I'm on the trail or in the mud I've gone down to 10-15psi. Wearing even so far. My last set of Nitto Terra Grapplers were 4ply, 265/75R16's and I ran them the same way. They wore even, I just got tired of them and wanted a MT tire.
What do ya'll run?

When I ran the 8-10 ply MT's the best was 38-41psi on the street and 12-14psi off road.Now with my load range C 35's I run 27psi on the street and 10psi offroad.


The load range D and E tires will require more psi then load range C and P metric tires,but no where close to there "max psi" which is 65(D) and 80(E).

Just replaced destination AT 245 75 16 with same size Hankook ATM, was running 38 PSI with Destination.
Good even wear with 38PSI, should I stick with same PSI on new Hankook?
Tried the chaulk test and may be too much pressure, hard to tell.

thanks

Neal
