In my camaro I run recommended on all 4. It's more of a spirited driving car so I prefer some sidewall movement

In my wife's 2006 silverado 2500 4x4 we run 60 psi which is low for the 285/75/16 tires if I remember correctly. I have tried to over inflate them but the truck feels like its going to fall apart on rough roads because there is no sidewall cushion for all the weight of the chassis.

My first hx was running 45 psi on Douglas tires and felt like the silverado did, harsh ride on small bumps. These michelin defenders on my current hx ride amazing at 45psi and feel like I'm still driving on stock pressure.


When I first started reading here it was recommended no more than 10% over max psi, so that's usually what I go with
