For those with 22''s

What tire pressure are you running? I recently added 22" Savini BM 12's and would like to know what tire pressure works best. Thanks in advance for your input.

Thanks for the reply... When I got my wheels, they were all out of whack... One was 49psi, the other was 38 psi. The rears were 36 & 35psi. I put them all at 40psi... Didn't want to ride on the sidewall. I originally asked b/c I couldn't get my TPMS to reset.

Tires.....

What tires are you guys running on the rear.its a 295/25/22. I live in ut and will only run them in the summer. Just wanted to hear experiences of what everyone has been running and how they like them.....I've heard there are load index restrictions so this is why I ask......

Take it from someone who has run multiple sets of 22's and larger wheels in general on many cars for nearly 2 decades: 40psi

38psi is also good but nothing more than 40 or less than 37 ever!

Why you ask? For the most "even tire wear" imaginable.

In previous cars with larger wheels, I try to keep them at the max psi on the sidewall since the roads are so terrible here. I've yet to have any adverse tire wear. And make sure to air them when the car is cool. Probably first thing in the morning or late at night.

I run that size. I couldn't get tore hazard because they didn't meet the weight index.
I just did a 2000 mile trip through mountain roads without any issue

I'm actually running 305/25/22 out back. But generally 295's are the norm.

No rubbing issues? Also, what's your front setup?
