Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

What should a 35" tire be inflated to for normal road driving? I have Coopers and on the tire it states that cold the max psi should be 50. I have them at 40psi now and go down to about 20 or 25 when offroad. Any suggestions.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

Read the tire placard at the driver's door. Max air pressure and recommended are two different things.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

I've always wondered about that - What if they aren't the original tires that were on the car. What if you go bigger and better - do you still fill to what it says inside the door??

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

no guys, you fill what is says on the TIRE. Every tire has it written on it. :rant: Every tire has the PSI, the Size, and brand and whatever information is needed. Just bend down, take ur glasses off and read the tire itself. I cant be any clearer

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

Isn't that MAX psi shown on the side of the tire? (not recommended psi)

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

actually I do think your right. I may have been mistaken.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

You ARE mistaken. The tire labels the MAX tire pressure the tire is safe to be used with. The Tire Placard shows the recommended pressures from testing with the tire and the vehicle. (This might be off with non-factory tires, but pretty close, AS LONG AS THE TIRES ARE THE SAME SIZE.
I just noticed the original question was for 35's (so I can't read:shhh: ).
So, to answer the original question....I can't, but would still recommend close to the recommended pressures, and keep and eye on the tires to see how they wear. Wearing on the outer treads pressure too low, wearing on the inner treads, pressure too high; even wear across the tire, pressure ok.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

um buddy, a tire placard is only for the manufactured tires you get with your vehicle. If you read, the topic changed to tires you buy after market. These tires mostly wont tell you the recommended pressure for a specific vehicle.
Your still talking about looking at the sticker when you open your door...We already covered that, quit wasting time... Question is, where do you find the recommened pressure for an after market tire, becasue on the tire it might only say MAX!

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

Matt,

The question was asked and answered with the best answer there is, go with the vehicle manufacturers recommendation. The same tire on different vehicles can have different required pressures and no tire or OEM manufacturer is going to list every vehicle application.

The advice from f5 on non-stock applications is what any tire expert would tell you.

You already posted one incorrect response in this thread and your last response could be considered by some to be disrespectful towards a very valued member here who has forgotten more about cars than you could possibly know at this point in your young life. Don't let your mouth or in this case your keyboard, overload your brain ......don't broadcast when you should be tuning in. :shhh:

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

:iagree:

WTF?!?!? Someone needs a hug.....or perhaps a happy pill.
:fdance:

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

i did not post anything wrong. I simply said you look on the tire it tells you what pressure it needs. I just didnt say wethers its Max or Recommended. So please tell me my errors in my ways. please, please do.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

Um buddy, I believe you apparently started out wrong....and then ended rudely.
:lame:

If you look in the driver door of an H2, you might get your answer.....:fdance:

38 psi.....and that's what I run at.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

"More than half of drivers wrongly believe the correct tire pressure is located on the outside of their tire wall, which only reflects the "maximum permissible." The correct amount of pressure is located in your vehicle manual and can also be found on one of the vehicle’s doors, inside the glove compartment, trunk, or fuel door."

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

ok SMARTGuY, what do you do with tires that you buy at walmart? Check the owners manual?

You guys can bitch all you want, i looked at my tires on my eclipse (you guys dont deserve me looking at my hummer) and it says min and max...umm when you put in oil the dipstick says min and max. when you put in tranny fluid it says, min and max...
A semi-intelligent person would fill everything between MIN AND MAX. so if you SMARTGUYS out there cant do simple stuff like that, then..i pity your hummers. PITY

I think this thread might be over inflated

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

YOU ARE NOT MY F'ING BUDDY; therefore, I am NOT YOUR BUDDY, and never will be, so find another response.

Your first statement WAS incorrect. You told someone to fill the tire according to the PSI labeled on the tire.
("no guys, you fill what is says on the TIRE. Every tire has it written on it. Every tire has the PSI, the Size, and brand and whatever information is needed. Just bend down, take ur glasses off and read the tire itself. I cant be any clearer.") Your second posting even admitted the error.

My second posting corrected my first posting due to my mistake of not seeing 35 versus 33. However, if you are replacing tires of the same size, you want to follow the placard (yes the thing by the driver's door).

So, stop being a smart a** and let's all try and get along.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

Not wanting to get involved in all this, I still wanted to add something to this thread. I just ordered 35 Baja Claws and should be getting them any day, so I was going to ask the same question about what pressure to run. I would like to note that my 3 originaly had 265s and the recommended pressure was 30psi. But I made the dealer put on 285s from another adventure model as part of the deal. I looked in the door on this truck and it said 35psi. I had other issues with the senders going off shortly after and wondered if there was different senders in the two sizes. ( I could never get an answer from my parts guy.) I did finaly get them resynched had no further issues. So my best guess here is to run the 35s at least 35psi. Someone somewhere else told me 40. I know from having other lifted trucks that rim width compared to tire size also has alot to do with it. We used to run the truck across concrete after wetting the tire to see what kind of track was made. We would inflate till you could see it crown and then drop pressure by five until it looked heavy on the edges then tried somwhere in the middle. ( Forgot what the reverse of crowning is called. ) This way we did not have to wait until the tires showed wear to change pressures. I would also tend to think that putting tires this wide on narrow rims would tend to make them crown a little faster at higher pressures. Just my thoughts. I guess I will find out soon.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

I'd guess 35 psi, but someone here may have better advice. It will be easy to tell if its over or under inflated depending on the wear of the tire, which with that tire, should be evident pretty quickly. Gotta love the Mickey Thompsons....

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

:popcorn:
I would guess 35 to 40 lbs would be fine :D
:twak: But wouldnt the best way to find out is ask the person you bought the tires from..Shouldnt they know based on tire and wieght of truck.

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

My rubbers say Trojan on them and nothing about pressure..... and the treads are perpedicularly aligned to the "road".

I am soooooooooo confused...... :D

Oui vey.. Yall are violent today..

I'm running 45psi in my 35" BFG MTs Air down to about 19 - 20 PSI

Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?
 

The H3 has a 5 cylinder in it :eek: Are you sure:giggling: :beerchug:


I say just put in 37.5 PSI and be done with it.:p
