Thanks for the response but what you said is exactly what is so darned confusing. At 4080 rating per tire does that mean total weight of 16320 tires should be 110. If yours are 4400 why do you run 100 psi. If my GVWR is 16600 and I’m at full weight wouldn’t my tires in total be overloaded?
4080 times 4 = 16320. Should I adjust my psi based on total loaded 5er weight or just run them at 110 all the time?
I know this sounds like a dumb question but just trying to wrap my head around all this and run the best safest psi to get the longest life I can from the tires
Thanks for your reply
