The 10% low and 25% high alert thresholds is what the TST 507 user manual recommends.

Sidebar: The TST 507 TPMS alerts for my 2007.5 Dodge Ram 3500 DRW truck are set to:
Front
Low Pressure alert = 58 psi (10% below 65 psi)
High Pressure alert = 81 psi (25% above 65 psi)
Rear dually
Low Pressure alert = 54 psi (10% below 60 psi)
High Pressure alert = 75 psi (25% above 60 psi)
I didn't know what pressure to fill my rear tires to, the sticker on the inside of the door says "Front = 65 psi, Rear = 40 psi normal load, 65 psi max load" so I figured 60 psi for the rear was some compromise between 40-65. What do you have your rear truck tires filled to?

Most of the guys with duallys that I know that tow heavy are running lower pressures in the rear duals when not towing (between 40-50 psi.) Depends on the tires of course...usually the stock tires are E rated with 80 psi max cold pressure. Nobody I know runs them that high. I run 65 fronts and 45-50 rear, bump it up to 65 when towing. But I'm also running non stock tires, although still rated at 3,195 lbs @ 80 psi according to the sidewall info.
