40-48 psi, depending on the load?
What is the ply rating?
Radial or Bias ply?
I would start at 36psi and drive it at whatever will be be your "normal speed" and road-type.
Then, add 4 psi and do another drive.
Repeat.
Go with the psi that provides best balance between good tracking and ease of steering (without excessive wandering).
I think I ran 7.00x15" Toyo radial tires on a 54 1/2 ton pickup at 45 psi.
Usually the tire manufacturer will provide a load vs psi chart for each style/size tire.
