What PSI in the front and rear tires are people using for regular everyday driving?

 

[jackdebrabander]

55 in front and 45 in back

I had to raise mine here in Michigan, because my TPS alert went off last week because I had a 7-8 psi fluctuation... really wish they would have nitrogen filled these.

I filled the fronts up to 55psi and the rear is at 50psi.

I'm in Houston(at sea level) and mine fluctuate between 49-51.

I have filled mine 55/45 a day after I got the truck as they had them at all different numbers & nitro fill.
I hear nitro gives better MPG, meh! I just equalized them with regular air.
Mine fluctuates 51-55/43-45

Help me out- what is the advantage of having different tire pressures between the front and rear tires?

The rear tires (generally) have more stress on them in 2wd therefore having a higher pressure can somewhat prevent premature ware. Also a it can help with heavy loads as well as towing.

I personally don't know. I follow the printed pressure on the door.
I'm assuming the front end is heavier than rear end so it needs more pressure?

Trust me as a former certified Chrysler Tech run what the door recommends or slightly higher (2-3psi) and rotate tires at EVERY oil change. You will be amazed at how much longer tires last when properly inflated and rotated.

 

[Rebel Bill]

I agree,Pedro. Great advise.

 

[Runner 548]

Yup been a tech for 37yrs now , follow the door sticker and rotate regularly and you'll be fine

Every oil change...in that a bit excessive?

 

[Pedro Coutinho]

Not at all... rule of thumb is every 6k. I think our trucks are 8k average between oil changes so every oil change is not excessive

 

[BCT]

I have always done all of my vehicles at every oil change. Its amazing how good tires hold up with regular rotations.

[Runner 548]

this is even more so on tires with an aggressive tread design , proper rotation is a must

Do you guys get them done at the shop when the oil is being changed or do you have the facilities to do them yourself? I personally don't have the facilities to do it myself, so I do them once a year, usually in the fall. I'm interested to see how they perform in the snow since I've never owned a set of tires such as these.

 

[gohider]

I use 55 front and 50 in the back all nitrogen filled. So far I find it very comfy and smooth and even ride.
