My xD had DUnlops which say 51 PSI max on the side wall .. odd? I am therefore running them @ 55, make take them up to 60 in a couple of weeks to see if there is a difference.

If your knees bent in the opposite direction......what would a chair look like???
But that's what the tire sidewall says to inflate to
I had to buy a $200 Viair pump, because not even the gas station and mechanics compressors could get them up there in less than about 20 minutes.
I have valve caps that let me know if pressure drops (I think its 10% below?)

I guess I'm kinda a wuss as far as that goes. Mine are rated 83 with a max of 90. I run em at 83...I figure that's pretty high, so I'm ok with having them there.

For the last year I have been running my Yokohama Avid TRZ's about 20k miles at 40-45psi and haven't noticed any bad wearing on them. They still have tons of life left after 24k miles (I started running higher psi about 4k after I got them) sidewall max is 44psi door frame is 32 I think.

I Run my tires around 44 psi, what they are rated for, haven't experimented with higher pressures yet. But, by looking at everyone else's gains, it definatly worth trying!
I had my Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max installed this afternoon. They have a 51 psi sidewall max. I'm starting them out at 52/50 and will likely bump them up a bit from there.
