Original tire and handling on the 00's should be 255/65/15 Goodyear Eagle
LS.

Mine came shipped with 42PSI, which is 3 under the 45PSI max on the side
wall.

The door plate does say 35.

At 42, the center of the tires were chipping and tearing the finer tread
REALLY bad. Brought them down to 36 and am really much happier. Harder to
squawk the tires and the cornering is much improved.

Basically the door plate is always supposed to be right for normal
conditions. More weight = more air.
