those w/ this tire set-up, what are you guys/gals running for tire pressure?? and would the pressure be different if I ran 8" Fronts and 9" Rears, in oppose to someone running the same tire set-up, but running 8.5"F and 9.5"R?? ...I've done a search, but to no avail....thx for any help/recommendations...

hope this helps?

BennyZ, Brabus;
thx for the info, question though...do you both do the same psi for both front and rear?? isn't there a variance since they're a staggered set-up..similar to the stock set-up where they recommend 33F/37R for the 225/40/18, 245/35/18???

I'm running 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 with 39 psi front and 40 psi in the rear. Hopefully the air will protect the rim when I actually do hit holes. Then again, too much air might actually cause the tire to bubble if I hit something hard enough instead. Its pretty harsh at what I have it at, but when I actually do hit holes, it feels a little more solid. I used to have it at 36 psi front and 38 psi rear.
