I'm pretty sure we aren't running anymore than 14 psi in any of our radials and I think we are running 8-10 psi on the 5488. We got close to 6,000 hours out of the BF Goodrich radials that came on our 1086 and we've got a couple sets of Firestone's with more than 4,000 hours and I don't think any of them have ever had more than 18 psi in them. It seems to me like at 24 psi your loosing all the benefits of running radials, radials need lower pressure's to get a bigger footprint and that's not going to happen at 24 psi. We have weighted most of our tractors and will adjust the tire pressure several times a year for different jobs or varying hitch weight.
