What pressure do you run your tires at?.I had a flat the other day
and the local garage plugged it with a rubber pellet and sent me on my way. I thought the tire looked over inflated so checked it a couple days later, it was at 65 psi !! I normally pressure at 35psi for 17" rims. toyota's psi standard is for a 14" rim, so do you ideally alter it as the rim gets bigger? |

On my last set of tires (Yokohama Parada 215/40ZR-17), I kept the pressure around 40psi because that's what the manufacturer recommended. However, they wore unevenly (the middle was gone before the sides) so I suggest around 35 or so.
