I have LT's on:
Black Top - 42 to 45psi
Good Dirt Road - 36psi
Average Dirt Road - 32psi
Rough Dirt Road - 26psi
Sand - 12 to 18psi
(ie Simpson QAA soft tops 14psi was required)


Non-LT tyres you will have to keep it below 35psi (look at the side wall of the tyre for maximum PSI)

Do's this mean that the makers plate on the side of the door needs to be ignored as mine say's 29psi.

I have been putting about 32psi in fuel consumption seems To be better.

I beleave its for all round comfort & handling from Mits. I put 37psi around town for my off road tyres.

Hi sinbad,
The 29psi on the door sticker is for a soft-compliant city drive, if you run higher, I run 35psi in mine, fuel economy will improve and your tyres will last longer.

I have got maxxis 751 bravo radials on the front and geolanders on the back,
what psi would you recommend for around town.

I'm very new to this, the maxxis have m&s on them do's that mean mud and sand? and would anybody recommend the maxxis as i will have to replace the rear tires next.

I went on my first 4x4 adventure on the weekend up to the flinders ranges, now i know why so many people like 4x4 there great fun, even on the dirt roads much better then driving a sedan.
Just have to get used to the extra fuel usage.
