go look at the labels on your tires.. typically they are the same as the 18s.. mine were 3680 @ 80psi max.
most accidents happen within 25 miles of home. Stay safe, for you, your kids and the others on the road.
there was an accident, (I'm looking for the story).. guy hauling a trailer got cut off at a traffic light, couldn't stop, couldn't turn enough, rolled over the 5th onto a van(pulled the truck over too), pushed the van under a tanker truck beside it. It only matters in that one second when you need the systems to work to their fullest.
