Lots of opinions on this. Some go as high as 40 psi, most people here seem to be in the mid-30s. I've been running about 34 but I haven't tried different levels other than 30 and 34. Haven't noticed any difference in ride, mpg, etc. [/align]

So, what is everyone else running?

I too have gotten a tad over 20 MPG on occasion. Big thing was a light load, staying at 70 or under, all interstate near sea level. I got 361 miles and had a 1/4 tank left when I stopped, topped it off with 18 gallons to the brim. That was with non adventure tires. I've got Super Swamper 34s on it now and I can tell a BIG difference in mileage, but hey, it looks GREAT! Seriously, I bought SS tires and rims for my offroading. I kept my stock tires and wheels. If I need to make a long trip I can stick my factory tires back on in no time. I just hate to pull off those mean looking Swampers and ProComps now that I'm used to seeing it that way.
