What tire pressure?
What tire pressure?
My truck came with brand new F/S Transforce A/T's 500 miles ago. They are set at 60f & 70 r. I have low snow traction going up my driveway( snow/ice). Should I run all at 55psi? I am rarely running a full load.

Hi Joe
Check your glove box.
When I bought my 04 it came with a variety of different tires.
You should have a "load" guideline that came with your truck, specific to tires on your truck.
Mine were Michelin A/S tires.
Empty was 50 psi front ...recommended 60 psi for highspeed highway travel.
I believe it recommended 40 PSI (50 highway) empty and went up from there according to cargo weight..not sure though.
I would imagune you could check with the tire manufacture.
I know if I have 70 psi in the back empty, the truck bounces all over the place.
BTW, mine is a long box 2wd.
Snow tires for me are a must...plus about 700 lbs of gravel in a crib over the rear wheels.
As you know these trucks are front heavy and have a ton of torque.
Hope this helps.

I found another sticker on the drivers door. Why they couldn't put them together or make one sticker if beyond comprehention. It had the unloaded weight presure as 50 front/40 rear. It rides and grips the snow and ice better now. Thanks
