I have LTX M/S 235/75-15 LRC tires. Max is 50psi and I inflate to that when towing RV. My question is, what pressure should it be set to for daily highway driving?? Door sticker states 26psi.

Thanks.

I think most people have them around 30-35 psi normally, i do personally, though my tires are only 2 ply sidewall so high pressure is somewhat needed to make sure they have max ground contact...
 






The 26 psi recommendation was prior to the Firestone
tire failure debacle. IIRC, Ford came out with a revised
pressure of 32 psi.

I like to run 33-34 psi in mine.
