Tyre Pressures
Hi everyone I need some advice, I have just fitted a new set of BF Goodrich
T/As 235/70/16 to my 2002 Cherokee (Liberty) and I unsure of the tyre pressures for them. Will they be the same as the Wranglers I have just wore out, which were 33psi or can any one tell me what they are running in their BF T/As......... Many thanks |

Normally if you go up in size, you can drop the air a bit, but only a lb
or two. You can do a chalk test to see how much rubber you have on the road. Put a bunch of chalk marks across the tire and drive straight a few feet and see what is left. A good footprint will have an inch or so at the sides max.

If the Goodyear Wranglers wore out evenly at 33, then the BFGs should be
fine. Personally, I have to wonder if 33psi is a bit too high for any tires on that vehicle. If it was in my garage, I'd be thinking that 28 to 30 would be about right.

get better results..... I feel your pain bro, I'm the world's worst speller.......
