I made my own pressure/loadcapacity lists wich comes to lower loadcapacity for the pressure then the American lists, and even lower then the saver European lists.
Michelin adyust their lists to the American system of TRA, so those lists also give to high loadcapacity's
Planted PDF's for it at next map on my skydrive of hotmail adress.
Pressure/loadcapacity lists take the USA map
For that you first have to see what maxloadpressure your tires have.
If you read "maximum load xxxx lbs AT yyy PSI ( cold)" then the yyy is the pressure needed for the maximum load, and not the maximum pressure of the tire. Probably its 80 psi but can be different.
Then open the file in my map with 80psi beginning.
Search at front for the maximum load in lbs or the loadindex, and look the weights up , but first add 10% to it for savety-margin.
Made seperate lists for per tire and singleaxle and dualaxle, so you dont have to do the division yourselfes. Rear you probably have dual so 4 tires on one axle, front single ( 2 tires on the axle).
But if you give the tire-specifications and axle/tire combinations , I can put that in my tire-pressure calculator, and it calculates a save pressure.
