"LRR" is code for "labeled for high pressure". No 35 psi tire is LRR. Load range E truck tires (80 psi) in a highway tread are almost all rated as LRR. So I am confused when you say you can't find a LRR tire for your truck? And yes, I have personally run 44 psi car tires at 75 psi for their entire life with no problems even on rocky Montana back roads. That was the only way to get over 30 mpg with awd 96 Subaru. As for my truck and trailer I keep them right at 80 psi though I am confident they can safely handle much more. On my 36 International hot rod I will likely be testing "big" truck tires on 17.5" rims. These are "real" truck tires and come in load range G at 120 psi! There is a weight penalty for stop and start, but just cruising I predict better efficiency than "car" tires. On Nov 10, 2014 8:02 AM, "tomw via EV" <ev@lists.evdl.org> wrote:
