Default What PSI does everyone run their tires at ????

I have the Dunlops on there, and I keep them at 44 PSI (the max on the side of the tire). What does everyone else run their tires at ???? Can I go higher ????

I somehow got Bridgestones that are rated at 40psi, so I run them at max.

Need fewer troops to support.

Before this car I spent two years learning hypermiling on my 2004 HCH1.

46-48, Bridgestones max = 44 (we just had this discussion so hopefully
I don't have to explain it again, but do it at your own risk). :-)

Just did a major highway trip in heavy rain and snow (tahoe), cable-chains + 48 PSI
worked fine. And the near absence of hydroplaning was a welcome thing.

I filled my tires to 35 psi when it was 24F outside. Have no idea what they are now that it's 50F+
