Sorry to ask the old question again
I have the stock standard tyres on the SWB R model
ie Bridgestone Duelers D840 265/65/r17 (I could not afford the $1000 they asked to change over to another tyre when I got the car)
Just got around to checking the tyre pressure
This was a cold reading but the tyres are at 40-41psi all round. The guage I used is not a cheapy so is believable.
I rang the dealers and they reckon that is about right for both on road and offroad (but not sand)
According to the label on the door this with in the specs if towing (ie 3 bar for the back- they are using metric).
So looks OK for road but I would be interested in what other people are using for these tyres in the various elements
ie
Bitumen
Sand
Rough dirt with lots of rocks (eg Oodnadatta)
Other?
I know it is an oldy but it is a goody and always of interest.
