Mickey Thompson ATZ tyre pressure's
Have just emailed Mickey Thompson asking for tyre pressure recommendations based on axle weights and gross vehicle weight for each type of use. Tyres are 305/60/18's.

Will post up response if and when I get it.

Cheers

TC

Rapid response received!

The recommendation is for between 45-50 psi front and rear for mixed use Shocked

I emailed back and asked to clarify and the response was reconfirmed.

Now the book says 28 front and 48 rear for a TD5 110 so the rears would be within that but the fronts way over. What are peoples views?

Cheers,

Steve

The bigger the tyre the less psi.... your only running 60s so you would need more psi than 28 in your fronts Thumbs Up NEVER TAKE LIFE SERIOUSLY. NOBODY GETS OUT ALIVE ANYWAY
