I'll see your Tire and Loading Information with 16" tires and raise you 17" wheels!

View attachment 216331

We got quite the knowledge base here!

Well technically the OP has 18" wheels but that is irrelevant because his truck will still be looking for whatever PSI the BCM was programmed to look for. Whatever his door tag says is what should be followed.

My bet is the tire shop set his pressures at 35psi as that is pretty SOP around most tire shops.

I think you're right Ken! Totally missed that!

Does he have 265-65-18s? Another door sticker to get hold of!

Got it, he's going to need to drop his air (in the rears at least) if running LTs and of course reprogram the RCDLR to keep the warning lights functional.

So Set the tires to the door sticker PSI? Today rear left tpms show dead battery per les schwab and needs to be replaced. I bought one today and will have it installed and set tires to the psi on the door sticker. I should be ok then right?

if your tires are the size shown on the chart then yes, otherwise they need to be within 10 psi of the chart in order to make the error go away.

If you do that with those 33s she's going to ride like a rock. But the annoying light will come on until you have it reprogrammed for the right air pressure. If it were mine, I'd set them to 50 psi and 65 psi for now.
