Paul, Guys, Since 1980 I have been running less than the recommended Tire PSI in my pickup tires When I am not hauling heavy loads. My 80 Chevy 3/4 4X4 was so ruff one could not ride in it on a gravel road without having to peal your head off the inside of the cab. So since then I have run 35&40 PSI on gas trucks and on my 01 F350 DSL 4X4 Crewcab longbox, I run 40&40 PSI just Bobtailing around up & down the highway. Only when I an pulling a really heavy load do I air up tight! 65 PSI +. There is just no need to air up to max air specs to Bobtail around not really working. The Namebrand tire stores are going to tell you to air up to specs to C.Y.A.!!! But a stiff sprung pickup ride can be helped to some degree by lowering tire PSI. but only to a point. My $.02 here! Later, John A.
