19.5 inch tire pressure

[STEVEBROOKS]

For those who have 19.5 tires on their trucks, what psi are you running when unloaded? Mine (245/70 Bridgestone M729) @ 120 psi are terrific for hauling my 5er, but rattle my kidneys at that psi when unloaded.

Thanks,

Steve

I believe that the lowest pressure recommended for those were 70 psi. That's what I ran them at unloaded.

Chris,

I was hoping you'd see my post, so thanks for the reply. Man, those tires have worked out great. Each time I pull the toyhauler, I'm more and more glad I got them from you!

Take care,

Steve

I have a set of load tables from Goodyear that show the following for minimum load ratings.
225/70R19.5 2895@70(s), 2720@70(d)
245/70R19.5 3640@70(s), 3415@70(d)
265/70R19.5 3970@80(s), 3750@80(d)

If you call the manufacture they should be able to provide you a set of load tables for your tire or they may even have it on their web site.

No problem. I don't think most know how much this one upgrade changes the towing characteristics of a truck. Glad you are happy with them.

I run the 19.5" on my dually at 70-80 PSI... I got 90K miles on the first set on this truck with even wear... I don't rotate but what for front tire wear....
