Toyo Open Country M/T+tire pressure

letumwork · 08-09-2008, 10:36 PM

Just purchased some Lt295/70r/17 Toyo M/T's and was wondering what pressure you guys are running these at empty. I have the TPMS system so unless I wan't to look at a warning light I'm limited to 60psi min in the front and 45psi min in the rear(unloaded). The tires are rated at 3970 at 80psi which is higher than the stockers which were rated at 3195@80psi. I'm looking for the pressure that will give the best wear, mileage and comfort on the street in that order. Anyone with these tires find the magic number? Thanks!

You Can Take Your Vehicle Back To The Dealership And Have The Tpms Sensors Flashed To The Air Pressure You Are Currently Running... I Would Recommend At Least 55 Pounds All The Way Around And Rotation Every 5000 Miles.. Cross The Fronts To The Rear And Move The Rears Straight Forward.. You Should At Least Get Around 55k To 60k Out Of These...

I was at 43K miles with the least tread depth measuring 9/32ths. They all were between 9-11/32th.

That was at 35psi and rotated them once. Just did doughnuts to keep them even after that.
