Weird ring around new Nitto 420s

[Modded]

Good question.

35 PSI.
For the record, I ran 37-39 in my 295/35/24. If I had 22s I would run 36 or 37.

Look at this chart for example. The largest 24 inch size has a smaller load rating than the largest 20 inch size, both at 50 PSI.
This means the 24" wheel needs a higher pressure to achieve what the 20" tire achieves at a lower pressure.
This chart also means that, on the same vehicle, the 24 inch tire needs to be pumped more than the 20 inch tire to have a normal tread-ground contact width, while the 20 can be pumped less.
Kapish?

[/COLOR]BTW, a lot of tire shop employees know nothing about tires and wheels outside simply mounting/repairing them on machines.

I was not directing it at you. I know two people who specifically work at Discount Tire. One just works there for money (like most of their employees do) and the other knows a lot about tires. He is pretty much passionate about wheels/tires.

Yea I go there bc they have the cheapest prices on tires... I figured they would know what PSI to put in a tire considering how many cars they do a day lol

They generally do depending on how many aftermarket deals they do. Down south, they are the best place to go for aftermarket tires and tire related issues. Sometime you just have to tell them what you want. Places like Firestone are a no no.

Nice! If they have competitive prices then I might be buying my next set of tires there!

I dont like to throw it on the forums just because but it is my occupation on my profile. We have 5 going in Fresno also which seems to be quite a ways north of you unfortunately.
