Default Re: Tire Pressure for 35" tires?

First off, I don't actually know the answer to the question being asked . . . but . . . I don't believe the tire pressure changes with the size of the tire. "PSI" is per square inch, regardless of how many inches is being filled with air. PSI measures the pressure, regardless how large the area of compression is.

I would follow the Min/Max recommendations, seems that everything in between is preference, not necessarily "correct".

Whatever they were filled with at the dealer. Seriously, the PSI on a tire like this doesn't make that big of a difference when filled within their designed operating pressure, for every day use. But that's off the subject of the original poster's question.

Now, if we're talking about my Vette, 32 front, 30 rear. That's a different animal.

It is a different animal, but tire pressure is tire pressure.

I'm sure you can tell when a tire might be a little low when tooling around town? I can. 35" tires on an H3 should be run between 36-38PSI.

The higher number is advisable if you have added weight like a winch or are loaded with gear.

THAT IS ALL!
