hi, I've got a 95 suzuki escudo with mud tyres on. Mainly running on the road now.

Can anyone tell me roughly what psi they should be?

thanks

the easyest way to find out what psi you should run is to use a large crayon or chalk make a wide line across the tread and drive it about 100' and see how the line wear's off it need's to waer off evenly once you get it to where it wear's off evenly then you are at the correct pressure.
All tires are diffrent and will useally require diffrent pressure's depending on the construction of the tire. On my jeep I run 24psi with 33-12.50-15 Toyo AT's but when I was running my goodyear 30-9.50 I was running 29psi.
Hope this help's

the obvious is to run em at the manufacturers recommended pressure. Look closely at the little raised letters and numbers on the side of the tires. My 37x14.5x15 toyo's recommend 32 psi. max. On the road I usually run at about 25 psi, offroad dirt/rock from 10 to 15 psi and in snow 3 to 6 psi.
