I have a 21 Badlands 4 dr with sasquatch. Today I had it at Discount Tire for my second flat repair and the Discount Tire employee noticed something interesting. He asked me what pressure I run my tires at?
I run mine around 36 PSI.
He points out that the tire states the MAX pressure is 35 PSI.
The door frame sticker states the recommended pressure is 39 PSI.

Seems Ford is recommending a tire pressure greater than the max inflation pressure set by GoodYear for these tires.

The tire does have a disclaimer that 10 PSI over the max can be used when loaded, but my guess is that this should not be done all of the time.

Should I be running my tires at or below 35 PSI and not at the for recommended 39 PSI?

#1 cause of a flat tire is low tire pressure

Just discovered this myself, and my dealer had my '22 Wildtrac at 45! Took them down to 39, but now wonder if 35 might be even better?
