    If yer not gonna run around at 100+ mph all the time, just go with the pressures indicated on the door jam. That setup is pretty hard to beat when it comes to ride comfort and tire / gas mileage.

    Hey bud, I was just on another thread that talked about this, check it out. Got some useful technical info about measuring tires as well as opinions on pressure to run. I think most folks agreed with Knight, that 32-35 is a good range...
