air pressure for 285/45/22 ??

[racephan]

I just added 22" rims with 285/45/22 tires...they were set at 50 PSI..I thought it rode to hard, I lowered them to 42 pSI...it seams good now...Anyone else running around 40 PSI with 22" ??

tire pressure

That seams a little high. What does the tire say on the sidewall for pressure?

I'm running my 20s at 38psi, check the tire but you should be fine at 36-40 and it will ride nicer.

thanks for the feedback....I lowered to 38psi all around...much better. I am running 22" x 10" SS replicas. Nitto 285/45 420 tire. The tires do seam to make a little noise at 50mph and up...I guess I will have to live with that, not real happy...Someone asked about 24 vs 22...I would go with 22 if you are concerned with the ride quality. I have noticed the quality get more firm with 22"s...I could only imagine that the 24" will be worse.
