I'm temporarily driving a 1999 Ford Explorer 4x4 while my other vehicle gets a new engine. I checked the tire pressure (Goodyear Wranglers) and they were at 40-42 cold. I checked the door sticker, it says run at 26psi cold (never seen that low). The max listed on the sidewall is 44. The vehicles has 105,000 miles and I don't know if these are the same 'brand' tires as OEM.
My question is, should you run the door sticker pressure regardless of brand? I dropped them down to 30, ride definitely smoothed out. I need the best traction and stopping abilities these tires have to offer. Any suggestions? thx
