I noticed that every time I take the MO to the local dealers in the Greensboro area for an inspection, tire rotation, they inflate the tire pressure to 40 PSI. This gives a bumpy ride and I always deflate it back to 35 PSI. The local tire guy who installed new tires to-day told me that it is better to keep the pressure a little higher than what the manufacturers recommend. The manufacturers manual recommends 33PSI as the optimum pressure. I am very keen to find out what you guys pump it up to?
Thanks

The stock pressure is a compromise between ride quality (low pressure) and handling/fuel economy (high pressure). The MO rides pretty hard anyways, so I don't mind running slightly higher pressure for better mileage and steering response. Go too high though, and you will wear out the center tread over time.
I run 38F 36R. |

F - 35 - 36 psi
R - 33 - 34 psi
for better handling..... |

| 38 all around. I must say I have not aired it up for about a year now so it has now dropped to 34. Maybe tomorrow....:D |

| It's because you don't "AIR" but once a year. :2: :2: |

Well, "tomorrow" came and went and still no air. Maybe next weekend! Thanks to the TPMS I got from you (and it is very accurate, I'd say 100% accurate) as long as they stay above 33 psi I will not sweat it. I have only about 2/32 thread left on them so tire wear is not important anymore...:D |

I know. But I am in California so technically no rain for another few months. I still have good traction in dry weather....and twice the minimum legal thread....:D
I know I am stretching it a bit but I only drive a couple of miles a day. |

RF = 32
LF = 20
RR = 61
LR = 73
Note how both sides equal 93. |
