Air Pressure?
Just put on some 33s and got the jeep legal so I’ve been blacktop ridin. Aired the tires up to 30 psi and thinkin I don’t need so much air. I’m goina try bout 20 in the rear cause I ain’t got nothin back there and 25 up front. What’s everybody else runnin?

25 front and rear is what I run unless I am on a long highway trip when it is hot outside or loaded heavy. After a few hundred miles the tires will themselves tell you how close you are by how they are wearing.

Guess I should’ve added that this is not highway drivin but country 2 lane roads at 40 to 45 mph. Yeah I know I should’ve “googled” it. I had 15 rear and 18 front for some trail ridin and it felt great but I thought I should air up when mostly hard toppin.

Im running 33,12.5,15... I did the chalk test until they looked nice with a flat foot /no cupping. My front air is 22psi and my back is 20psi.
Do the chalk test.. some brands need more air, some less. Not all tires are the same.
