Sorry for the late hijack. Looking for proper inflation pressure for a stock 2011 LC200 running LT285/65R18 Ridge Grapplers. Can’t seem to find it in the search.
I really appreciate it!!!

Thanks Gaijin!The RCTIP for the LT285/65R18 tires on your LX570 is 37psi F/R.

The RCTIP for the LT285/65R18 tires on your LC200 is 42psi F/R.
HTH
gaijin - I am curious why the exact same tire (LT285/65/R18) is 42psi on a Land Cruiser and 37 psi on a LX570?
So can I assume the load limit for the LC200 is +/- 800 lbs more than the LX570?
Thank you for the detailed response.
So how does one go about determining the appropriate inflation when you make suspension changes? If I add a 2” Icon lift does everything essentially go out the window? Is there a method for figuring it out?
No change - easy.
HTH
Ok. Then I’m even more confused. If I read your post above correctly, tire inflation is related to the overall suspension of the vehicle and the different suspensions (springs, etc) between the LC and LX resulted in the need for differing inflation pressures. If you change out springs, shocks, etc. would you not therefore need to adapt the tire pressure to the new suspension characteristics?
I know almost zero about the intricacies of auto suspensions so I apologize if I’m missing something obvious here. I find it all very interesting and I’m ust trying to understand.
Thanks!
BFG A/T KO2, 285/75R17 on 2017 Land Cruiser, Rock Warrior wheels?
Great thread!

What about the Michelin Defender LTX in 285/60/18 . When we got them mounted a few weeks ago, the tire shop (discount tire) set the pressures at 34 psi. It seems to have a bit of a bulge, but the truck rides fine. Just want to make sure the pressure is right.
thanks!
