Default 40" Toyo tire pressure
Just ordered my 40" Toyo's.. Super pumped to get them on.. I ran my 37's at 28psi on the road where they felt good, but those were Load E tires and built for full size trucks.. These 40's are a load C and I'm wondering what the ideal tire pressure would be for them on the road.. I'm guessing the 32-34psi range?? What do you guys think?

I don't have them, but I would start around 30 and drive it and chalk them, then go from there
