Dick,
Are ya keeping them that low due to snow?
I've been keeping all 4 at 65 but keep meaning to lower to F55 R50.
All hard surface, no real snow to speak of (yet).

I have 285-75-16s and aired down to 45 psi on all four because I noticed one day after driving over sand on my driveway with 55 psi that only 3/4 of the tread was actually making contact with the pavement due to the tire being wider than the stock ones and I still have stock rims.
