| Although I do not condone or recommend exceeding the maximum pressure rating listed on the side of whatever tire you're using, I'm currently running 52psi in my front tires and 50psi in the rear tires ..... the maximum on my tires being 44psi ...... the ride is a little sharper, but not as bad as one might think and the center of the tires do not prematurely wear out like some people would lead you to believe ..... I got 55k miles on my original 17" Bridgestone Duellers and could have easily got another 15k out of them ..... and I was running 60psi in those .... and I've been running very hard tires for 25 years ..... I believe that the real secret to better fuel milage in our Titans is being very vigilant in keeping the torque converter "locked-up" .... and it ain't easy ..... the wishy-washy slipping torque converters in our trucks suck .... oh yea, I also have an KC XE .... probably lighter than one of them "Nancy Boy" luxury trucks with all the back-up sensors and automatic mirror crap piled on them
