Thread: D2 tyre pressures

with the equation above the pressures will be significantly higher with LT tyres. Those above have not stated tyre type when noting their preferred pressures. I agree though that even with 80 psi max lt lower in the front is better.
56 psi even at 1300kg rear using the above equation.
cheers
looking back I see Off track has done some LT Calcs however...Cheers

That's an interesting point, mate.


Pretty much means the pressures stated on the tyrte placard are good for factory tyres but after that your on your own. LT tyres are rated at 80psi for max load but other are rated at 50psi for max load. I would expect, their partial load pressures will vary at the same ratio.
