[quote=Sarookh;16966]Capri, what brand are your tyres???! :032: I have Kumho and they are good on road and offroad but i feel they are getting eating up very fast...:024:[/quote]
Bridgestone H/T, very good driving on road and off-road, life-cycle about 60,000 km, but cracks on the sidewalls, strong sidewalls, in desert for my weight (2T) I can easily drive with 6 psi, without any pop-out.

I was testing now to drive with 8 psi in A53 and in one occasion it smelled after pop-out, but it was only released air, the front tyre remained on the rim.

I'm driving TJ Manual gear with BF Goodrich A/T 31x10.5, I'm using 5 psi without experiencing any problem.

Measured with what? Can you share also what pressure gauge you're using? Compared at least with some certified petrol station air filling stations?

Pressure gauge i bought from ACE, its measuring range is 0-60 psi, inbuilt deflating valve (price was 65 AED), I have compared the pressure @ gas station it was same at 32 PSI. Will try to borrow your few minutes in next drive.

I'm very much curious how you can use mine at your standard valves :011:

I think he meant the opposite, as in lend you his rather than borrow yours...
So in order to avoid further confusion, I suggest we try all gauges with my valves, because I'm having such an issue trying to even get to the **** little things, that I can at least uuse you all for testing which one actually is able to measure and deflate semi-decently...!

FYI - I am using the metal ones and are too deep in...

I'm searching for a pressure gauge with the range of 0-15 psi as can get values in fractions (e.g 10.5, 8.5 etc), will use only for low pressure measurement after deflation but no success in local market. Find many on internet with the price range of 30-100 USD but never find in local market.

Hi guys

I have this one:

I have the 0 - 15 psi gauge.

I am very happy with it. If anyone wants to try it out, you are welcome to.
