Hi Y'all,

What does the sticker on the door jamb say? 38 psi sounds just about spot on. My 2016 calls for 39 psi.

Thanks,

Mine is a GCC Spec exported to the UAE and does not have the label. Hence the reason for my question. I will run it at 38psi then.

This will mostly depend on the wheels and tires you have. If you can share that information, you will get more relevant information.

Right. LT and P tires are not the same, and not the same pressure.

The Sticker on the door jamb will give you the best doe ride quality (soft ride). I prefer a stiffer ride, better handling, longer tread life and slightly better gas mileage so for every vehicle I have owned I add a couple pounds to what the sticker says. Works for me. State Police by me take the max side wall rating, subtract 10 percent and run that for best handling. I error on the side of caution and add up from the Sticker not subtract from the max rating on the side wall.
