BF GOODRIDGE TYRES ON A GU PATROL

I run 46psi in my cooper AT’s on the black top and did the same with the old set as well have had 0 problems, Ford Explorer

I just use the stamp on the tyre as a guide I.E Cooper stamp say’s 50Psi cold inflation temp.

THANKS FOR THE INFO. I'LL STICK WITH THE HIGHER PRESSURES, THEY WORK FOR ME AND TYRE WEAR IS PERFECT PBS127

pbs127,

You pretty much answered your own question. If your pressures give you good tyre wear (within manufacturers specs) then you are on to a good thing and stick to it.
For arguement sake I agree with the pressures you run as that is similar to my own preference, but I can go a tad higher when I really load up. 45psi not uncommon in my rig. Dueler A/T's averaging 70000km a tyre. The newer the tyre the less km I'm getting lately, maybe $hit rubber these days ?? Am due for 2 more soon not sure if I'll go Duelers again or not.

Regards Trevor.

I beg to differ here. I have 275/70s on my 3.0lTdi GU and use about 34 front 38 rear. Then lower on gravel and dirt. Lower still on sand. Have done close to 100k on first set.

I think 40+ is just too forma ride round town and far too high where there are stones. Puncture waiting to happen.

At the opposite end of the scale, I ran my first BFGs at the pressures recommended by Nissan, and found that they were wearing significantly on the outsides; ie, underinflated. I now run about 33 in the front, 38-40 in the back and get good wear.
And I drop the pressures about 5psi on the gravel, and have had no failures (yet).
