The only reason I question it is due to all the ruckus going on about the
Firestone/Ford fiasco. Even before though, it's always been said by the
tire manufacturers that the maximum inflation pressure stamped on the tire
is the maximum cold pressure for that tire on any vehicle. For the optimum
tire pressure for your vehicle see the vehicle manufacturer's tire sticker
that is on or next to the driver's door or vehicle owner's manual. Just
going by the book. I don't want to see how far my truck can skid on its
roof!

What happend with reading the sidewall of the tire? It lists max. tire
pressure
so it's not hard to figure where to set it to. I always run my tires 3 to
5psi
below the max and have always gotten real good tire pressure unless they are
like the tires on my new work truck which say 80lbs of pressure then I set
them
at about 60psi since I never haul any loads in it. BTW, if you think that
your
tire doesn't list this on the sidewall it's been federal law for quite a
while.
Don't mean to be a jerk but really.......why do you need a sticker or to
call
your dealer or dc???? Also, since it's on the size tire that you have it's
correct!!!
