I am asking if my logic with tire inflation is beneficial or not recommended practice.
Quite a bit of my driving (60-70%) is with the vehicle unloaded and just me driving.
The tire pressure decal on the door frame lists max tire pressure fully loaded.
So, for example, the max pressure is 44 psi front and rear.
Considering thatI am only 25% loaded for max capacity I reduce the tire pressure 10% to 39 psi for my normal unloaded driving, and then increase to max when I know Iāll be driving at or near max with passengers or supplies.
Is this consistent with maximizing tire life and running tires safely?
Thanks
