Tire Pressure question

I have Toyo 235/85-16's. This truck and respective tire types are new to me, the max PSI for a full load is 80 PSI. WOW! Anyway, without a load, what would you recommend for a PSI? I'm currently running 65 PSI in them now.

Brian,

look inside the drivers side doorjam. There should be a sticker there saying what size and load rating tires belong on the truck. ~If~ the tires currently on your truck are that size and load rating, I would recommend that tire pressure.

. . though, off the record, I would probably run 65 in them unloaded too - it'll ride MUCH better.

HTH.
