Tire pressure is an entirely variable figure. It depends upon how much weight the tire is carrying. The basic idea is that the more load the tire is carrying, the more pressure it needs to carry the load. If it's not aired up enough, then the tire squats too much, and then the sidewalls flex too much, and ruin the tire. The particular LT tire you have will have a maximum load rating at 65 PSI. You can run any value up to 65 PSI, provided it's correct for the load you're carrying. Simply put, follow the pressure recomendation on the truck, according to the load you're carrying. Rod
