BFG tire pressure
Hey guys I have a 2005 ford f150 I recently got a set of 285/70/17 BFG AT KO2 tires mounted on my truck. These are load E tires at what pressure do you guys run them at?
|
I have 275/70/18 load range E and run them at 35psi
|
I had 265/70r17's KO2's and now I have 35x12.50r17 ko2's, both run at 40psi, had 7,000+ miles on the 265's with almost no sign of any wear, look like new still. That's what the manager at Discount Tire said he runs his KO2's at so I went with it. They didn't/don't ride hard either.
|
I ran 50 psi summer and 40 psi winter. 65 psi when towing.
|
I'm on my second set of the BFG KO's 285/70/R17 and run 50psi. First set got 60k and I'm expecting about the same kind of mileage on the second.
|
Damn, maybe 40 psi is too low? How do they feel at 50? Do they ride hard?
|
They ride real nice, it was recommended that I run 50 when I purchased the first set and that is what I have always run.
|
Just might have to give 50 a whirl. Thanks for the info. :thumbsup:
|
Ya the shop installed them have them at 65psi. The most I tow is my boat maybe 2,000lbs. I'm guessing I won't need to inflate them up to 65 just to tow it. I'll try running them at 50psi
|
That's really high pressure. There's not really any need for it, but whatever works for y'all. Our computer at work recommends 35 for load range E for this size.
