And this is one of MY reasons.

F-250's require the use of LT metric tires - and many of them are DESIGNED to use 80 psi - even says so on the sidewall. It is interesting that he had some issues with them at that pressure.

And just for the record, 80 psi is probably much more than what the vehicle placard calls for!
