And despite what was said, you are running exactly the right pressure in front and rear. 80lbs. in rear, 65 in front. If you try and run any lower in the rear, it messes with your TPMS.

AlfaOBD easily reprograms that. I think I programmed mine to 50 front, 35 rear.

(Offhand I can't give you the specific models on anything, other than all terrain.)
Firestone tires sre real bad on getting eaten off of tread. 98 f150 daily driver went through a set in a year or 2.

Firestones dont have good wear quality. Buy michelin , hanook or just about any other brand. check out Ecustom rim.com,,, free shipping no tax, and quick delivery.

I don't run them quite that low, even empty, I just want some sort of warning just in case. As per scale weights the load and inflation table says I only need to run something like 50 and 40 PSI when fully loaded towing our Rockwood but I run about 60/50. I'm getting good even wear and have about 5-6/32nds of tread left after 39000 kms (24000 miles).
