I have sumitomo 245/40/18 htz-II front and sumitomo 285/35/18 htz-II in the rear. I need to know what the recommended tire pressure is to be run in the front and rear. TY

18" tires need more pressure than 17" to keep the outsides from wearing too much, so I run 35psi front, and about 34-35 rear.

I agree Mr. Plow run 35-36 psi in the front and 34-35 in the rear and you
should get great results with your 18" Sumitomo's.
