I have the 15" 2 piece wheels, which are stock, but I guess they aren't so common. I am running 7" x 15", 8 plys. This was as close as I could get to the stock tire without having to pay Coker prices. I appreciate any leadership on tire pressure. BTY I drive it alone and with no cargo, and the truck is completely stock. Thanks. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 47 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 47 | Forgot to include my truck is a '53. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | I would run 35 lbs in the rear & 40 in the front. They can handle a lot more then that but if you are not hauling anything that will work.

I agree with Wrench - 35-40 unloaded is what I ran in my 50 3600.
