I did install spacers and had a much better look, dealer wouldn't install the spacers but no problem, my daughter helped and took no time at all.

I had 60 psi in my Duratracs when I left the tire store. Dealer or other shop, you've got to wonder if they're thinking. Some people just read the "max pressure" and assume that's what should be run.
