In the past, I have always put 35 pounds of pressure in my car tires and have had great luck in achieving maximum tire tread life. Of course, 35 pounds has been the maximum pressure indicated on the tires.
However, I recently purchased a 2004 Dodge Stratus and the tires indicate 44 pounds maximum pressure. The sticker on the car says to run 30 pounds pressure maximum.
My question is, for maximum tire life, should I use the maximum 44 pounds or 30 pounds? I assume that if I run 30 pounds the ride will be smoother.
