PSI in Stock Tires

Just was wondering what PSI everyone uses in your stock tires? No pulling just daily driving.

65 in the fron two. 70 in the back four. Helps with the fuel mileage since Big Momma's idea of off road is the unpaved roads.

Good general rule of thumb is 55PSI front.....60-65PSI rear....

Never towing 50 front and 55 rear will work...

Towing a lot... 60 front... 70 rear is awsome!!

For the daily commute I run 70psi in the front and 65psi in the rear. Helps mileage a bit. Haven't figured out the best yet for towing.

if you want the best tread life this is the best rule for it,if the center of the tread is wearing more then the shoulders drop the air but if the shoulders are wearing more add air but if you want to have better fuel economy use the same rule but add another 10 to 15psi,if you tow run 70 to 75psi in the rears and keep at least 65psi in the front..
