I just checked my PSI and it's at ~ 25 PSI. in front and 30 PSI. in the rear


What's the best PSI for 245 wide tires in front and 275 wide tires in the back ? The max it says on the tire is 51! It's way too much.. what do you guys recommend ? The tires are Falken ZIEX-512.


Thanky!

32 all around, 35 max otherwise the ride will suffer, and the rims will take more shock on bumps...for racing put 35 front, 20 rear and no lower in the rear...

Same here. 32 is a good starting point. Mark them with chalk and run them and see how the chalk wears. If it wears on the inside faster you need to remove some air. If the outsides wear faster add some.

are they 17s or 18s? 18s usually need a higher pressure than 17s. i have 18s and i have them at 42 all around.
