First upgrade was to replace the GYMT’s with new KO2’s. Just my favorite tire. The shop that installed the tires pumped them up to the door jamb sticker of 40 psi. Seems to much for this tire. I’m thinking more like 35 psi. Without doing the chalk test, does that seem right? Will I have to change the pressure alarms with Forscan?

40 seems a bit much. I am at 34.

I'm around 35psi for my ko2s. You may see slightly better gas mileage with 40, but the ride quality is not worth it in my opinion. I run my E rated 34" nittos on my f150 at 38, anything more and it rides like crap.

Any difference in road noise between the two tires? Heard the K02s are quieter

I could tell the difference right when I left Discount Tire with my K02s, even in the ride quality, like night and day to me. The wife noticed the differnce in road noise at highway speeds, the radio isn't turned up as loud anymore.
