What do you keep yours at for everyday driving? Mine are at 32 now but my truck rides like a lumber wagon.

Have you tried running around 45-48 psi? Those tires are so soft, and with you running 32 in them when they are maxed at 50 - you may be getting a bad ride from the outter edge of the tire. Bump up the pressure and you may be getting a smoother part. Hope that helps

31s allow a larger footprint meaning less air needs to be in it to supprot the same weight, i ran 30 in mine on my explorer with no ill effects....


now that the same tires and rims are on my toyota which weighs half what the explroer weighed, im running 20 psi, and i will also run that loaded and for 100 mile trips without problem
 






40psi cold all around. That's about 45 or so when hot, within the max, & it rides a little stiff, but my driving style likes that. No effect on gas, cause I drive like I stole it anyway. :D
 






i run 36psi in my 31s all around. there wearing perfect..and not to much sqeeling around corners..(i might drive alil to quick..hehe)
