Hi AndyTieDye:

___Most passenger tires you can purchase today have max sidewall of just 44 #’s. Is it safe to go > 44 #’s? How many hundreds of thousands or millions of miles of travel would you need to see before you consider 50 #’s safe? 44 - 50 #’s is for more advanced Hypermiler’s and probably not for you just yet. As mentioned earlier, burst pressures are in the 125 + # range in most cases and I have yet to hear of a blow out do to over inflation at just 50 #’s from Insighter’s with > 100,000 miles on their 30,000 mile rated Bridgestone RE92’s

___I have the Continental ContiTrak’s on the Ranger (not the Eco Plus’ ) They have been running 50 #’s for over 2 years now but again, this is my own preference. My use of such pressures does not condone others to follow my lead nor should it be a recommendation for you to do the same.

___Good Luck
