Questions for Peeps with the Toyo 285/75 r17 tires

[Mobius1]

Mainly, what psi are you running in your tires and what revs/mile did you reset your pinion factor to offset the bigger tire size with the drb 3 or Smarty. I found a site to calc rev/mile U. S And Metric Tire Size Information Calculator I put in the info and I came up with 596 is that about with other peeps have put in? Thanks in advance

I run 70 / 60 in mine - mostly because I really like the added MPG and the ride is still great.



I tihnk I put like 614-ish -- under 600 sounds way to low...



I think this tire is 33. 7 inches tall right?

I set my pressure to 60 psi. Ride is smooter at 55 psi. The final setting for Smarty was 33. 60 inches. Formula for the tire size equals 33. 83.

Yes the tire is just a hare under 34 inches tall. Tomey, How close is your speedometer from before?

My speedo is right on with my gps set at 33. 28, i run 70 psi front to keep the tire cupping down, and 45 in the rear empty, this gives me even rear tire wear.

Nice,



Got some good info on tire psi. How about rev's per mile? What did you set it to with the smarty? I apologise if the smarty calculates it different, I do not know, b/c I do not have a smarty

And what exactly is your point? It appears to me that all of the posters on this thread own diesel trucks!
