I've started with 40 psi, but I think that's a tad much, as I can see the new-tire-nipples only wearing in the middle, after approximately 150 highway miles. My brother set my tire pressure sensor's at 40, so I'm going to drop them to about 37 psi and see how they do. That shouldn't set off my tire light. Whatever I do get it set to, I'll go back and have him reset those sensors to the proper range for me. I hate having any warning lights on.

I think I'll give Mickey Thompson a call and see what they recommend.

I'll try to post pics of before and after, tonite.
Nice....

I typically run my tires at 35psi cold. They typically roll down the road hot at about 37-38 psi. I feel like its a good happy medium for ride and fuel economy.
