TIRE PRESSURES, FJ60's, & 33 x ????'s

[dogboy2]

Just taking a poll for concensus: FJ60's, tire pressures, and 33's.....

what is everyone running theirs at and for what application i.e. wheeling, highway travel, general purpose, etc....?

let the floodgates open

somewhere around 30. If you really want to know what pressure to run, take some chalk and draw a line across the tread. Drive a block in a straight line then look at where the chalk has worn off. If it has worn evenly then you are about right. If it's worn in the middle and not the edges then let some pressure out and vice versa. This doesn't take in account the comfort factor. The less air in the tire, the more soft they will ride.

I typically run my tires at 10-12 off road. If I'm real far from an air source I may let less air out.

I running 33X12.5X15 MTR's at:
32 psi on road
15 psi crawlin
NO problems!
