New BFG t/aKO2 265/60-18 tire pressure?

[joecool509]

Does anyone run these tires? Looking for a good starting pressure for these tires. Thanks in advance.

I have the LT 275/65x18 size, but my lr3 weighs a lot more. On the highway, I run 50-58 depending on the load per axle and/or towing. Off road you also have to take into account the weights. I cannot really safely go below 30-35 psi but a 100% stock vehicle on my 32" tires could get away with 25 and probably show the same tire deflection.

For normal weight like your signature suggests, and that almost stock size tire, near the psi in the door is probably the best place to start. Isn't that like 44 psi or so for the rear and about 38 front? Could just try 42-45 and see how it feels.

Technically speaking it really depends on the axle weights and tire size.

Thanks. I will start mid 40 and go from there.

44

I use 44 for fronts and backs. I'm running hankook dynapros atm. 265 60 18.

My LR4 has about 300lb extra weight ( skid plates) and I run BFG TA KO 265/65/18.
For every day driving I set pressure to 42 PSI front and 48 PSI rear( cold tire pressure).
For heavier loads ex. 4+ people plus cargo, I set 44 front /50 rear PSI.
For off roading I go with 30-35 PSI (hot tire pressure).
