Default Not quite the same size....

However, even though my rig is fairly heavy and on 40"s, I run about 22-25psi on the street. My beadlocks allow me to run about 8psi on the trail.

it depends on your vehicle weight and tire load.

best thing to do is a chalk test

pic from the internet



you basically want to have an even contact and through out the treads (from side to side) if the center is wearing faster that means your over inflated and vice versa

it is very important to have the correct pressure in your tires. the MTRs are not forgiven when they start to cup or wear funny.

hope it helps! good luck

Notice the outside edges have chalk on them. That's because the foot print is round and those will not contact under correct air pressure on a flat surface
