OK, thought I read somewhere that they run softer but I must have imagined it

As per advise given a while back on here from AJS Tyres, they should be run at about 3 psi MORE than the standard pressure. That is what I run mine at with no problems.

I run mine at standard pressure with no issues or adverse effects on handling, braking or off road ability. What is the justification for running them higher? 2014 D4 XS

Go down in pressure a little in wintertime and up a little during summer. CLUB ILLEGAL CAR WASHERS

Its down to they way they are constructed. Andy from AJS Tyres would be able to give a more detailed answer, but it was his recommendation on this forum that they be run 3psi higher than normal. I have stuck to that recommendation with no issues at all.

Standard pressure is fine for most, there have been a few users concerned over higher fuel consumption so you can help this by running higher pressures which is up to the end users, (have one bod on +6psi) he does have a trailer on most times.
Users running higher pressure are getting better mileage and MPG, changed a set the other day at 41,000, not bad but we have seen a tad better but this will depend on your use, driving style and usage will have a factor.
New AT looks very good as well with 30,000 upwards looking good for some.
