ST tires are designed to be run at the pressure stamped on the sidewall and not any lower. Lower pressures cause the sidewalls to flex more than necessary, which builds up heat. The heat and repeated sidewall flexing is what eventually weakens and destroys the tire. I wouldn't get tires rated any higher than what you need unless you're sure you can keep them fully inflated.
Thanks for your replys my rims do not have a pressure rating on them just max weight ov 2830 lbs. If you get G rated tires do you half to put in 110 lbs of pressure?
