Hi,

Does anyone know the recomended tyre pressures for 265/75 R16 Grizzly Claws on a Defender 90, for on the road??

Thanks Mark.

When i used to run them on my old disco i had them at 45 psi front and back and they where fine but i think they are rated at 55psi/60psi

Not saying thats wrong but 45 psi  :shock: seems alot, ive got 35x12.50x15 cooper stt's and i run them at 28 psi for the road. in my own experience mud tyres behave better at slightly lower pressures on the road, when landrover had my truck for a service there tech man put the tyres upto 50psi and they where awful it very nearly caused me to spin out.

bogie:
The best pressure ive found is 28 to 32 psi. You go too high, your kill the centre of the tread.

From LR experience for 265/75R16. Unloaded 25 front 27 rear. Loaded 27 front 35 rear.

Hope this helps
