Thanks

If you give me next from tires, I will make you a pressure/axleloadcapacity-list, with build in maximum reserve, but still acceptable comfort and gripp.

1. Maximum load or loadindex
2. Kind of tire to determine the maxloadpressure, but if you read AT xxx psi on sidewall, that is what I need. Yours probably C-load AT 50 psi.
3. Speedcode, to determine for wich speed the maxload is given by tiremaker.

Sizes would be nice, and from car GAWR's and GVWR, empty weight.
Carmakers use GAWR's and max technical carspeed with no reserve, for their recomended pressure. Or yust AT pressure of tires.

Then you " ONLY" have to determine the axleloads 99% accurate, the most tricky part in it all, and your responcibility. Then seach them back in my list, and use that cold pressure
