gbgastowers Posted November 9 Share Posted November 9 The tire pressures listed on the door jam sticker seems a bit excessive. Does anyone know if they are still accurate? What are the pressures listed on the newer ones? Mine is a 2020 and it says 42 rear and 38 front I believe. Gunar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosestang Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 (edited) My '24 says the same. That's with the Jet package and 22" wheels. Don't know about other wheel sizes. Edited November 13 by moosestang additional info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunar Just curious why you think the tire pressures are excessive? Your tires are probably not 75 or 80 series that have 5 inches of sidewall to flex. Manufacturer tire pressures are set to balance ride comfort, tread life, and load capability. You need a certain amount of minimum pressure to maintain sidewall integrity, especially in low profile tires. You also need certain pressure to maintain a flat contact patch for even tread wear. Best fuel economy is achieved at higher pressures (for lower contact patch) but decreases ride quality. You are free to set whatever pressure you want, but don't be surprised if you have decreased fuel economy, see excessive wear on your tire shoulders, or potentially have a blowout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbgastowers Posted December 4 Author Share Posted December 4 I will leave it at the suggested pressure. I’ve had a lot of cars and suvs and have never seen anything 40 or above. Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
