Hi guys,

Fitted me new alloys and tyres as you see in avatar.
What tyre pressures do you advise for 765/75/16 m/ts?
Any advice greatly appreciated, been told that 42psi on the back and 28 on front is normal but me thinks this was for the 205/16s i used to run

Bigger tyres generally need less pressure. A bit of Trial and error so that there is a small amount of deformation so the tread sits flat. When off-roading though, drop em down to 20-22psi for extra traction...

Sorry to hijack, but similar question.

Bronco grizzly claws 265/75 R16. doesnt say on the tyres what psi to run em at, so i just did it to 30 all round. sound about right for general road use?

I put 30psi in the rear and 28psi in the front into my bfg muds 265 75 r16, if this helps 'chris mack', and they handled fine on the road at this pressure

28/30 is about right. I wouldn't run them with high rear pressures - the back end gets skittish which is a bad thing.
