Fellas, I put the tire on and have placed zinc coated bbs in it. The ride is extremely smooth.

My question is: How much air should I put in it for maximum gas mileage. I am heading to Mexico and probably could save a bit if I had the right pressure in it.

How much air do you run?

How much air should you run for optimum gas mileage?

Thanks

41psi to 44psi on the 165's should be in the ball park of where you need to be...... Very Happy Depending on brand and manufacture it could be on the high end or low end.
