What size you got lambert, thats a bit on the high side for a Mav.

Post by: lambert on November 15, 2007, 18:53:01: 235/75/15 bit of a compromise for off and on road. Much softer on road and it feels baggy and is even worse on fuel. Off road they still have a fairly big footprint.

235/75/15

For that size on a SWB Maverick, Ford state 26F and 31R normally loaded or 26F 35R fully laden.

Title: How hard is your's?
Post by: muddyjames on November 16, 2007, 17:02:50: 35psi or 0 depending on if mud has got in between the tyre and rim or not!!!

Is 35psi alright for bfg at's 235/70 r16's? I am wondering if the tyres are anything to do with very poor towing of my caravan and a very rolley polley journey in the Disco.

Should they be higher. They look squabby to me.

Fair enough but I find mine understeers if the fronts too high - are you using a reliable guage?

Also thee was a post on here or one the"other place" a while back from one of the boys in blue stating that his local accident investigator was checking tyre pressures on cars in accidents and was looking to (or is, can remember) use it as at least a contributing factor if not a negligence thing when assessing blame etc from accidents.

Post by: marjan on November 16, 2007, 20:29:04: Whilst we are on the subject, I have a Defender 90 which is shod with Greenway Anaconda 235/85 R16's on Boost alloys. Any idea what sort of pressure I need in the tyres for everyday road use?.

I have 25psi in them at the moment and it seems to wander a little in corners :shock: :shock: :shock:

I run 26psi front, and 34psi rear, on or off-road, including towing, using BFG 235/70 R16s.

Handling is pin sharp, and not much body roll (compared to a 200TDi I've been in anyway).

Can you describe what may be poor about your towing?
