I’m conflicted about selling it. No questions asked though. Full asking price.Cool, it looked like it would move quick.
I’m not trying to be critical, and keep in mind I’m from Alabama- but is this type of governance widespread in California? I come from a state that legally doesn’t require all the tires on the car.Required by law in California… for any service.
On September 1, 2010, the California Air Resources Board’s (ARB’s) Tire Pressure Regulation took effect. The purpose of this regulation is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles operating with under inflated tires by inflating them to the recommended tire pressure rating. The regulation applies to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 10,000 pounds or less. Automotive service providers must meet the regulation’s following requirements:
- Check and inflate each vehicle’s tires to the recommended tire pressure rating, with air or nitrogen, as appropriate, at the time of performing any automotive maintenance or repair service.
- Indicate on the vehicle service invoice that a tire inflation service was completed and the tire pressure measurements after the service were performed.
- Perform the tire pressure service using a tire pressure gauge with a total permissible error no greater than + two (2) pounds per square inch (psi).
- Have access to a tire inflation reference that is current within three years of publication.
- Keep a copy of the service invoice for a minimum of three years, and make the vehicle service invoice available to the ARB, or its authorized representative upon request.
Those are about the numbers I run on my 3/4 ton.When I bought my 2500 the tires were at like 105 - 110 psi and it rode like it had no suspension. I had to pull over at a truck stop near the dealership and buy a gauge. I keep them at 65 front, 70 rear.
Comminfornia has too many laws that make no sense which are just to add money to the state budget or the politicians pockets....Required by law in California… for any service.

Brian,I'm sure a lawyer is involved in tire stores putting the suggested air pressure of the manufacturer. Wasn't lower than recommended pressures part of the Ford Explorer lawsuit?

It is even better in kali for vehicles over 10k. I had to scrap my 03 F550 last year. I was a "gross" polluter.Required by law in California… for any service.

I run 32-36 PSI just for the lower rolling resistance... there is actually a noticeable difference. The cost is a harsher ride.
No accelerated wear anywhere on the tire. My front tires actually wear slower than my rear tires, probably because of the factory limited slip in the Rubicon rear. Roughly 20,000 miles so far on a set of 315/75R16 Duratrac tires.Have you been doing that long enough to see any accelerated wear of the center portion of the tire tread? I wouldn't consider it because of the ride but I've been curious how high it needs to be to actually do that.
It's usually a liability thing. Dude tells them 24 psi and then wrecks on the way home. Related or not lawyers will turn over every rock to find someone to squeeze.
