Every winter I change my rear light truck rear tires over to more of an off-road “Snow” tire.
Last year I damaged one of them and the dealer said that I should have had the pressure up to the maximum 50 PSI listed on the tire instead of the 35 PSI listed on the trucks data plate.
I have just put the replacement tires on this weekend and I would like to know which pressure is the correct one or if I should be somewhere in between.
Best regards, David

Thanks Norm. Pretty concise. We tend to wander off point sometimes...
Sorry Capri, I really do understand (and agree with) you point...However, I think the first sentence of my first post in this thread pretty much says it all.
