What kind of tire pressure do you guys run?

I'm running a stock tire setup on a 2001 and was curious what all you guys run.

I know I could read in the book but I know people often run less than what the users's manual says.

32 psi all around like it says on the sticker inside the door.

Winters is 32 for me, summers i keep it around 30 - but then again i have that 2 dollar tire pressure pen, i'm sure its accurate, but not THAT accurate!

Whenever I get my oil changes done, they always stick my 225/45/17s w/ 40psi..isn't that too much?

it depends on what tire you have.

some max psi go from 36psi all the way to 51psi.

in the summer, keep it lower as heat makes air expand.

in the winter, keep it higher as cold makes air more compressed.

do not go with what is on your door if you have replaced the tires before.

35 RL---\--- 40 FL
40 RR---/--- 35 FR
Only because of one tire that is very hard to balance and I have to keep it on the rear right to avoid shakes in the front.

Max 40 psi / Yokahoma AVS es100 / 235/40/18

Oh heck yeah it made a heck of a difference in my Xterra running an extra 5lbs in the summer when I'm only doing highway driving.

The rule of thumb is for every inch increase in wheels diameter, add 2-3PSI to the stock pressure and don't exceed the maximum pressure shown on the tire.
