Tire Pressure?

[peterson1604]

So my gauge says 30 psi but the truck says 32psi. How accurate is the trucks tire pressure monitor?

I found that the truck is pretty accurate to my gauge. Even when I check the tire pressure on the app they're all the same. I have this gauge here and it's nice because it has a bleeder built into it and glows at night.

Thanks, just ordered it. ?

I've had it about a year now and really like it especially when you're airing back up. It's easier to over fill by a couple pounds and just use the bleeder to get it right where you want it instead of attaching the air hose over and over.

Just put air in tires. My monitors are spot on with my mechanical gauge but the air compressor gauge is a few pounds under so go by the mechanical.

I run my Tires at 34 PSI all around.

Dammit Dave, another order placed.

Also remember... the actual tire pressure increases as the tire warms up.

You should know by now Charlie this site is a never ending money pit.

I got them all adjusted to 31 PSI after about 15 minutes of driving. Temperature is in the low 40s and winter is on its way here in Michigan so I'll adjust after the gauge arrives from Amazon.

What pressure is everyone else running at? I have the FX4 with the 17-in wheels.

My 17's are set for 30, cold, because that is what is on the sticker in the door jam.

Run the pressure listed on the drivers door jamb of your truck. Mine has Light Truck tires, so the pressure is higher.

I know this but I'm trying to save up a little bit for a hard shell RTT, this nickel and dime shit is messin' with my plans.

The TPMS on my truck has been dead on (within ~0.5psi) to my actual gauge anytime I check. And I do it often since I air down for offroad.

My door placard says to run 30psi, but I found with the "floatiness" of the front, running 32-34psi was more comfortable and helped to settle the suspension out a bit.

I just upgraded from the 255/65/17s to 265/70/17s and am still working out the pressure for these, but I suspect I'll wind up in the same range.

Also remember... the actual tire pressure increases as the tire warms up.

Whenever I fill them up, I put in 35 PSI all around, which give a firm but not rough ride. I understand that, given weather conditions, time of day, nature of the drive, etc. that actual pressure will vary up and down, but not so much that I feel the difference in a negative way.
