Default tire pressure ?

Hi, i have a question about the tire pressure. I have the original 18" rims with the goodyear wranglers on my 00 Disco II. Yesterday i checked my pressures and the front had 24 psi, the back had 28 (right) psi and 30 psi (left)

the car almost never has any extra weight besides 1-4 people

can u please tell me to what should i inflate them to?

With no extra weight I usually run 28psi in the front and 38-40psi in the rear. The manual says up to 46psi in the rear, but unless you're towing or have alot of cargo it just causes too stiff a ride.

Open your drivers door and on the pillar is a sticker that tells you all you need to know about your tires.

35 in the front, 40 in the rear will give you better wear and gas mileage.

You don't your eye to determine the exact tire pressure for a tire. Check and fill the tires as suggested, only when cold, then check every other month.
