Of course, the door sticker that displays the recommended tire pressures is completely irrelevant when going to much bigger tires. So what pressure would you recommend for freeway driving? For easy trails? For heavy rock crawling?
I know there are supposed to be a couple of ways to figure this out. The easiest would be to check the tire manufacturer’s load vs pressure tables. But I’ve never been able to find them on the Net. And I’ve tried the method of putting a chalk mark on the tire and driving a bit to see which part wears off but I’ve never had much luck interpreting the results :-(
Also, have any of you succeeded in getting your JL’s computer set so that the TMPS warning comes on at a pressure more suitable for your larger tires? Supposedly the dealer can do this but they may be reluctant.
