^YES! Thank you!

 

Look at your Owner's Manual, it should give you a PSI setting.
I read 33PSI for stock 225 tires. Bigger tires have more contact
on the ground and should have a reduced pressure.
Try 28PSI for a few days, see how it feels....

 

i was also gonna say longer, maybe boomerang shackles.

but they will break in and ride softer over time.

 

Contact area is dependent on tire pressure, not tire size. Basically:

contact area = (weight on tire)/(tire pressure)

Changing tire diameter or width mostly changes the shape of the contact but area is constant.

 

Either way. I ran my 35" KM2s at 20-25 PSI and it handled better, felt better, and the tires wore more evenly.

 

Contact area = weight on tire, tire pressure, shape of tire (rim width).

My 265 tires take a wider rim than my 225s to get a good shape, and

correct contact area...

 

good point bob! rim width may be why pressures change in the same sizes of tire.
