Tire pressure
What tire pressure do you guys run in your A/T tires? My 2004 has the 245/75/16 tires and when I got it it had about 25lbs in them and there was some unusual wear. The door sticker says 30lbs (which is in there now), but I think they could use more. On the V-8 Ranger (with 235/75/15 tires) I run 40lbs and they wear great, and on the Lightning (with 295/45/18 tires [not all season ]) I run 40lbs just fine. So what do you guys run?

I'm running 36-40 in my 35x12.5x15's on my Ranger. If I don't, they get all weird and cup and what not. But I'm also running wide tires on 8" rims.
I think the factory pressures are good for normal use, but a bit more is good for heavy duty use IF your tires are rated that high. I think mine are a maximum of 50 psi.
I have a 2002, and still have the independent front suspension on it. It's getting SAS'd at some point, probably after this year ends and I get the profit sharing check.

i found the math problem once i for get it now. but my coopers MAX PSI was 60.. in your reasoning i would run like 50psi.. that is totally wrong you never worry about max you use it as a base to figure out your psi you should be using...

LOL. I was thinking the same thing. Any suggestions for a tire that will fit the stock FX4 style rim?
How about any of these?
