TJ Tire Pressure

[MrBClark]

Ok so I recently mounted 33x12.5r15s on my Jeep. My question is what tire pressure do I run? I currently have 26 psi in it, but it doesn't seem that all of the tread comes in contact with the road. I will attach pictures of what I mean. Dont you want all of the tread to come in contact with the road for even tread wear? I really don't want to ruin these tires.. Maybe I am mistaken. Also, ignore all the salt covering my Jeep. Stupid PA is slowly ruining my Jeep

All of the tread isn't usually supposed to come in contact with the road, don't lower the pressure until it does. 24-26 is right for that size tire.

Perfect. That's what I wanted to hear. I'm used to seeing all the tread come in contact with the road because my old tires were worn so badly. Plus I've never run tires with a more aggressive pattern.

You know why air cost so much at gas stations? well...inflation.

I’ll stir the pot and say it’s because 8” wheels are too narrow for 12.50 tires. (Running joke through other threads)
