Hi Dj,

If these tires are oem...then they should be set to the door label at 30 psi. If they are aftermanket or dealer upgrade...then you need to go to the tire manufacturer's website for directions.

There will be a yellow black and white sticker on your drivers door jam that will tell you the pressures they should be at and it will tell you the size of the tire your truck came with.

I have the same tire an they were over 40 PSI when I took delivery. This was a common thing if you search it. I lowered them to 32....It just didn't feel right going all the way down to 30 but what do I know.

I usually keep mine at 31-32, especially in Spring/Fall when the temperature fluctuates a lot. I don't like it when it cools off one day at the tires end up at 28.

Yep I went with 32 cold....Don't know why but 30 just feels too low. I should try it to see if it rides better.

OEM tires change over the production cycle with availability. But as Phil said, whatever is on there the sticker on the door is factory recommend pressure.

Personally I run mine at 32. I tried a few different pressures and found that to my liking and handling. YMMV
